Tasting note: In the glass, Escalada 2022 shows a pale golden yellow and a dense viscosity that hints at its full-bodied character. On the nose it opens with clear terroir notes, followed by orange blossom, fennel, fine yeasty notes, hints of pastry and a touch of lactic character. The palate is dense, structured and creamy, with well-integrated acidity and a long, lingering finish.

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.
