Bodegas Gerardo Mendez
A winery with deep roots (La Casa Grande has documented estates dedicated to vineyards in 1850), carefully modernized, just enough so that, without losing its identity, the Albariño reaches our palates with all its virtues. In this estate and winery, popular culture prevails, treasured by three generations that Gerardo Méndez Lázaro currently represents, a winemaker of this time, respectful of the legacy received, committed to the quality parameters that today's tasters demand. The family farm looks in the distance to the sea of Arousa and even to the mouth of the estuary of Pontevedra. In the heart of Salnés, at the foot of A Armenteira and its monastery, the manor house houses a home and a winery.
Description
Still slightly subdued on the nose with elements of citrus, fennel, honey and white pepper. The taste is very mineral - refined, focused, fantastically intense with high, balanced acidity and with an incredibly long aftertaste.
