Description
Branco de Santa Cruz is an authentic village white wine, produced on the slopes of the Bibei river, in the region of Valdeorras, specifically in the village of Santa Cruz. This wine comes from vineyards scattered throughout the council, cultivated organically with goblet pruning and manual harvesting in boxes. The grape varieties used in its production are Godello, Treixadura, Doña Branca and Palomino.
Winemaking
Vinification is carried out with indigenous yeasts, and the wine is aged in barrels and foudres of different capacities for 10 months. The vineyards are located at an altitude of between 400 and 600 metres above sea level, in acidic, coarse-textured soils developed from granite, with low fertility.
Taste
Branco de Santa Cruz is distinguished by its fresh and delicate flavour, with medium acidity. On the nose, it presents an aroma of apple, pear, citrus notes, minerals, with a floral and vanilla touch. On the palate, there is a discreet unctuousness that complements the balance between the fruity and citrus aromas, offering a coherent palate and a short but elegant finish. This wine is very elegant and delicious, ideal for those looking for a refined and well-structured wine.
