Encoiros 2022 · O Rosal (Rías Baixas)

Encoiros 2022 is a natural Albariño wine produced by Adega do Vimbio, a family winery founded in 2012 by Martín Crusat and Patricia Elola in Goian, Tomiño, in the O Rosal subzone. Their project stems from a deep commitment to organic and sustainable agriculture, reviving family viticultural roots with a respectful approach to the land and environment.

The Veque and O Gaiteiro vineyards, between 30 and 35 years old, are planted in schist and clay soils, which give the wine freshness and minerality. The winemaking follows a traditional method: pressing of whole bunches, fermentation with indigenous yeasts and without the addition of sulfites, preserving the authenticity of the terroir.

Encoiros 2022 is bottled at the end of fermentation, unfiltered, retaining a subtle residual CO₂ that gives it vivacity and freshness.

• Taste: Fresh and vibrant, with notes of green apple and citrus, accompanied by a slight minerality that reflects the Atlantic and the soils where it originates.

A bright and expressive wine that captures the essence of the O Rosal landscape and the natural philosophy of Adega do Vimbio.
