Escalada ferments in used chestnut and oak barrels without temperature control, then goes into steel. The 2012 is deep gold, with ripe citrus, dried apricot, honey, roasted nuts and blossom on the nose. Full and well built on the palate, with lively acidity, slate and a salty close.
Serve it at 8 to 10 °C with grilled fish, shellfish or an aged cheese. After fourteen years it still has enough acidity to carry a meal.

The winery
In 1979 Fernando planted his first plot on an overgrown piece of land belonging to his wife Ana's family. Today the vines grow on Roman-era terraces above the Sil, on slopes of up to 85%.

It began in 1979, when Fernando planted his first plot, “Carballo Cobo”, on an overgrown piece of land belonging to his wife Ana's family. Reviving viticulture in such a tough setting was a real risk. Today the family farms around 25 hectares in 86 plots along the Sil and beyond. Algueira is one of the pioneers that brought heroic viticulture back to the Ribeira Sacra.
