2022 EULOGIO POMARES ALBARINO PEDRANEIRA VAL DO SALNES, RIAS BAIXAS SPAIN

Carralcoba is the name of the Albariño vineyard that the winemaker Eulogio Pomares uses to produce his wine from a single varietal plot Eulogio Pomares Carralcoba Albariño, a wine fermented in a foudre and aged on its lees, from the D.O. Rías Baixas.

The vineyard of Eulogio Pomares Carralcoba Albariño is made up entirely of the Albariño variety. The vines are about 70 years old and have been reproduced directly by layering, a technique that involves burying a shoot from a live branch from which another plant will grow. The soil is especially granitic, there are about 1,200 plants per hectare trained on trellises and it is about 50 metres above sea level.
