Details

The small-batch single vineyard white wine Rodrigo Méndez Tras da Canda Albariño is made by the talented Galician winemaker Rodrigo Méndez, one of the most interesting producers in DO Rías Baixas.

Nose

Distinguished and vibrant, this varietal Albariño has a deep, resounding mineral core, underpinning notes of bone fruit, lime, custard cream and roasted almond, with an intriguing hint of mint and petrol.
