Nanclares y Prieto 'Nanclares' Albarino

The double barrelled name Nanclares y Prieto 'Nanclares' Albarino refers to the vineyards immediately surrounding Alberto Nanclares home, looking across at the bay between O Gove and Cambados. It's a beautiful site that exposes vineyards to the incoming oceanic influence but with a little more protection than the sites closer to Sanxenxo; like A Grana or the Tempus Vivendi vineyards. There's a lot of complexity here, deep rooted old vines that have never been plowed seem to pull minerality through the wine, with a pure acid line promises longevity. Generally only around 1,000 bottles are produced annually from two 500l neutral, older oak barrels
