Encoiros 2022 is a natural Albariño produced by Adega do Vimbio, a family winery located in Goian, Tomiño, in the O Rosal subzone. Founded by Martín Crusat and Patricia Elola, the winery is dedicated to organic and sustainable agriculture.

Martín, a biologist and environmental expert, and Patricia, a passionate vineyard enthusiast, decided in 2012 to return to their roots to create wines that respect the land and the environment.

The vineyards, located in the Veque and O Gaiteiro plots, are between 30 and 35 years old and planted in shale and clay soils, which lend a unique minerality to the wine. The grapes are whole-bunch pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts without the addition of sulfites, preserving the purity and authenticity of the terroir.

The result is a bright and expressive wine, with intense aromas of citrus, white flowers, and a touch of saline. It is fresh and balanced, with notes of green apple, citrus, and a light minerality that reflect the character of the Atlantic and the soil where it is grown. Bottled unfiltered at the end of fermentation, it retains residual CO2.
