As Caborcas Tinto 2022 is an exceptional wine, the result of a careful production process that highlights the richness of the grapes used. This wine, primarily from Mencía grapes, also includes Sousón, Garnacha, Merenzao, Godello, and Brancellao, all grown in a unique 2.5-hectare vineyard that is over 80 years old. Located 600 meters above sea level on granitic soils, this vineyard has an ideal north-facing orientation for cultivating these varieties.
The production of As Caborcas is meticulous, starting with manual harvesting and selective picking of grapes. In the winery, the grapes are destemmed and cold macerated before fermentation begins, which takes place in both stainless steel tanks and wooden vats, using native yeasts to maximize the terroir's character. This wine undergoes 12 months of aging in 2000-liter fudres, giving it a rich, juicy profile with fine tannins.
On the nose, it presents a complex, deep, and expressive experience, revealing notes reminiscent of the richness of Galician granite. It is a wine that invites you to enjoy its tender and smooth finish on the palate. Ideal for pairing with meat dishes and traditional cuisine.
