Espadeiro is an old red Galician variety, and Attis bottles it on its own: 1,594 bottles. Among other things, it is fined with sea water. Very ripe fruit, liquorice and lilies on the nose; powerful on the palate, with fine tannins and lively acidity.
Decant it gently, then serve it with game, pot roast, mushroom risotto or an aged hard cheese. We would open it with a game stew.

An Albariño from vines over 50 years old facing west towards the sea. After fermentation it spends six months on the fine lees in steel tanks and large oak casks. Then the bottles spend six months in crates twelve metres down in the Atlantic, by the artificial mussel beds of the rías. In the glass it is salty and juicy, with very fresh acidity. It costs CHF 89.
