Pazo do Mar Expresión 2020
The Treixadura is the queen variety in the Ribeiro and provides fresh wines, with aromas of fresh fruit (apple, stone fruit...) and light floral components, with a fresh acidity that invites you to continue drinking and a very pleasant final aftertaste.
Pazo do Mar Expresión is a Ribeiro wine made only with the Treixadura grape from the Torre do Olivar vineyard. It could be called Vino de Finca because the grapes only come from a single vineyard which provides a homogeneity of the harvested grapes influenced by similar soil and climate characteristics which will clearly reflect the particular characteristics of the farm.
The Torre do Olivar comprises 110,000 m2 on terraces or terraces on a hillside on the banks of the Miño Ourensano, its soils are clayey on sedimentary shales and the climate is clearly influenced by the Atlantic with warm summers.
The vineyard was planted in 2002, although there are records of the cultivation of the vine on the farm in the early twentieth century. The harvest is carried out manually in small boxes of 15 kg capacity and a double selection of the clusters is carried out in the vineyard and in the cellar to be subsequently pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks with temperature control.
Subsequently, the wine remains in contact with the lees for approximately 5 months, until the time of bottling.
