Coto de Gomariz Finca O Figueiral Colleita Seleccionada 2019

The top-of-the-range 2019 Finca O Figueiral Colleita Seleccionada comes from the vineyard that was first replanted exclusively with indigenous grape varieties in 1978. The wine is 70% Treixadura, 5% Godello, 5% Albariño and a lot of other grapes for the remainder— Loureira, Lado, Silveiriña, Caíño Blanco, Dona Blanca and others. It fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel and matured with the lees in 500- and 600-liter oak barrels, 30% of them new, for 10 months, followed by one year in tank. It has a bright orange color, an expressive nose with notes of hay and straw and an expressive palate with some richness and the freshness and balance I was expecting. It has 13.1% alcohol, a pH of 3.18 and 6.42 grams of acidity. 3,300 bottles and 30 magnums were produced. It was bottled in June 2021.
