Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The white 2020 Lalume is from Ribeiro and mixes grapes from the three valleys on sandy granite soils. It's a blend of mostly Treixadura, with some Albariño and a little bit of Caíño Blanco and Godello. It has typicity of the place, with notes of moss and river stones and a palate with depth, intensity and purity of flavors.

Features

Description

Lalume is a white wine that stands out for its originality within the Dominio do Bibei winery's portfolio. From the Ribeiro DO, this wine is made mainly from Treixadura grapes (98%), complemented with a small percentage of Albariño (2%), two of the emblematic varieties of this appellation. The grapes for Lalume are carefully selected from vineyards located in the Avia, Arnoia and Miño valleys, aged between 12 and 30 years old, in sábrego soils and under an Atlantic climate.

Winemaking

Lalume is vinified by destemming prior to pressing, fermenting spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in a variety of vessels including 600 litre barrels, 1,200 and 2,400 litre foudres, 700 litre ovoid concrete tanks and 2,000 litre stainless steel tanks, without malolactic fermentation. The ageing is carried out in a first phase in wood of different capacities and in a last phase in stainless steel tanks of greater capacity (12,000 litres) in contact with the fine lees, which gives the wine its characteristic freshness and unctuousness.

Taste

Lalume is a dry wine, with a good acidity that gives it freshness. It is creamy and unctuous on the palate, with a medium body and ripe fruit notes. It stands out for its long finish and good persistence, which makes it an exceptional white wine for ageing and very representative of the Ribeiro DO. Its aromatic complexity includes ripe white and stone fruit, lees, spices, flowers and a background of aromatic herbs, making it rich and highly appreciated among connoisseurs.
