In the glass and in the cellar

Vintage: 2018

Grape variety: 100% Sousón

Production: Very limited edition of 1,080 bottles (0.75 l)

Origin: DO Rías Baixas

Vineyard: Pergola-trained with 800 vines per hectare at approximately 100 m elevation. Yield: approximately 4,000 kg/ha. Southwest exposure with optimal sun exposure.

Soils: Granite weathering soil (Entisol), sandy-loamy structure

Orientation: Southwest

Climate: Atlantic climate with continental influences. The 2018 vintage allowed for slow, even ripening, giving the wines a dense structure and brilliant freshness.

Vinification: Hand-harvested in perforated crates, careful selection on the sorting table. Complete destemming, spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in open 500-liter barriques with twice-daily punching down of the must. Vertical hydraulic pressing. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation.

Maturation: 12 months in new French oak barrels

Tasting note: Rich aromas of black fruits (blackberries), minerality, ink, and raspberries on the nose. On the palate, lush, round, and powerful, supported by a dense structure and juicy, lively acidity.

Food pairing: Ideal with grilled meat, lamb chops, game, braised dishes, and mature cheeses. It also pairs perfectly with intense vegetarian or mushroom dishes.

The winery

Attis

Brothers Robustiano and Baldomero Fariña work in the Val do Salnés, the coolest part of Rías Baixas and the closest to the coast. You taste the Atlantic in their Albariño as a distinct saltiness.

Still unsure?

What is the Attis Mar?

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.
