Attis uses the name Sitta for wines made outside the D.O. rules, including this Albariño, which fermented on its skins for 15 days like a red. Orange peel and exotic fruit on the nose; dense and fresh on the palate, with noticeable tannin and bright acidity. For longer skin contact, try the Doliola, which spent ten months in amphora.
We would open it with a curry, but it also suits spicy fish, game birds, aged cheese or a vegetarian menu.

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.
