ABOUT THIS WINE
Señorío de Rubiós Albariño is the flagship white wine of Bodegas Coto Redondo, located in the O Condado do Tea sub-region of Rías Baixas, Galicia. Unlike the cooler coastal sub-regions, this inland mountain zone bordering Portugal features a warmer microclimate that imparts a richer, rounder stone-fruit character and an unctuous, glyceric mouthfeel to the Albariño grape, while maintaining its signature Atlantic salinity.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The hand-harvested Albariño grapes are destemmed, crushed, and gently pressed. After cold-settling for 24 to 30 hours, the clean must is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 18ºC. The wine is racked off its heavy lees, undergoes cold stabilization at -5ºC for one week to prevent tartaric crystallization, and is filtered before bottling. No oak is used to preserve the fresh, primary fruit characteristics.
