About

Albariño de Fefiñanes is the flagship wine of Bodegas Palacio de Fefinanes. In line with the century-old winemaking tradition at Fefiñanes Manor House, jeweller, master craftsman in jet and designer Enrique Mayer based in Santiago de Compostela, designed the label back in 1928. A year later, in 1929, the wine won an award at the 1929-30 edition of the Barcelona International Trade Fair. A truly pioneering wine.

The Palacio de Fefiñanes estate – the benchmark Galician producer – was the first to bottle Albariño in 1928 and its winery was custom-built to be squeezed inside a 17th-century palace. This shares the same lively, mineral-laden quality of good, bone-dry Riesling and can equally be enjoyed young and fresh. Two or three years in the cellar, however, will bring out its wonderful viscosity and fleshiness.

Description

An Albariño from Spain’s most highly regarded Albarino bodega. This is a fabulous alternative to a great white Burgundy. Rias Baixas has received a lot of attention lately for the Albariños produced there, which many consumers are turning to as an alternative to many heavy, over-oaked Chardonnay wines
