Details
Eduardo Peña 2024
This confidential and sought-after Spanish white wine is produced by Eduardo Peña, a boutique winery from Ribeiro, Galicia.
The main feature of the wine Eduardo Peña is its composition. The wine is made solely from Galician native varieties, some of which were on the verge of extinction and have been fortunately recovered. The blend comprises Treixadura, Albariño, Godello, Lado and Loureira, sourced from vineyards located in the Barral-Castrelo do Miño area, province of Ourense.
The grapes were hand harvested and meticulously selected. Then they were cold macerated for a few hours with dry ice and gently crushed.
After that, the wine Eduardo Peña 2024 was transferred into Central European oak barrels, where it was fermented on lees. The wine did not undergo malolactic fermentation to preserve its crisp acidity.
The result is a truly singular white wine from Galicia.
