Vieira De Plata Albariño 2023 - D.O. Rías Baixas

The scallop's shell ("vieira" in Spanish) is much more than delicious seafood and the perfect pairing for this extraordinary white; it is the official symbol of Galicia, a unique region in northwestern Spain with gaelic roots and green fiord-like slopes that meet the Atlantic sea forming the renowned "Rias”. Floral, tropical-fruit aromas suggest orange and mango. This is juicy and under control on the palate, with dry white-fruit and citrus flavors. On the finish, it shows ample freshness and length.

Established in 1862 in Arbo (Pontevedra), As Laxas was a founding member of the Rias Baixas appellation after being purchased by Simón Ferro in 1975.  Today, under the leadership of Ferro’s 4 children the winery is equipped with the latest technology and owns 50 Has of vineyards dedicated to producing only the highest quality Albariños.
