A New Era

By controlling fermentation temperature as much as possible in stainless steel tanks, winemaker María Vargas can slow down fermentation and obtain greater purity and aromatic intensity. After two months in contact with the lees, wine gains texture, while seven months of rest in the tank improve its balance and harmony. The introduction of wood is a defining change to the Pazo de Barrantes Albariño, while the incorporation of concrete to the aging process of La Comtesse helps to polish this wine, enhancing its expressiveness and in the cellar.
