"Dandelion" by @nanclaresyprieto is an expressive
white wine from Rías Baixas, a coastal region in northwestern Spain & known for its crisp, mineral-driven Albariño (the same grape used in most Portuguese Vinho Verde). It bursts with flavors of salty peaches, juicy melon, and grapefruit.
@alberto_nanclares was an economist in Madrid before he and his wife moved to Rías Baixas to be closer to the sea. E While he didn't intend to become a winemaker, the land he purchased came with vines.
With the help of his neighbors, he gave it a go and later partnered with @silvia_prieto3 - a consultant and specialist in organic, traditional viticulture. Their dedication to purity makes all the difference in this iconic wine, transporting you to the Atlantic coast-it's my favorite Albariño to date!
• Organically farmed and crafted with a low-intervention approach, this wine's label depicts the region's traditional "parras" trellising system of growing grapes 7-10 feet high
to improve air circulation
(preventing mildew) and maximize sun exposure (promoting ripening) in humid vineyards.
Although Rías Baixas wasn't a major player on the international wine scene until the '80s and '90s, it now produces Spain's premier white wines-and more than half of the region's winemakers are women! — 18 days ago

Beautiful. Has almost an effervescent quality to it. Has a bit of earthiness and the fruit is so tasty. Love Altare wines. They are wizards with grapes. Oh Silvia!! — 3 years ago

Vinho muito intenso, que fez eu dar uma boa nota, mas a Silvia não gostou. A cor é bem escura, aroma de vinho jovem apesar de 4 anos, com sabor de ervas e madeira, álcool se destaca no cheiro e na boca, onde arde um pouco. Deixa um bom rastro. — 3 years ago
