Viñas Vellas - White Label, 2017

Constantina Sotelo took over the family vineyards in Galicia in 1985. The location is in the beautiful Salnés Valley in Rías Baixas, close to the sea and a region known as the birthplace of Albariño. The 2.5 hectares of old vines are pie franco and trained in the pergola technique, which is traditional to the area. Constantina Sotelo makes the wines with minimum intervention, using vessels such as old chestnut barrels, terracotta amphorae, stone amphoras, terracotta bottles and concrete eggs to create different expressions of the Albariño grape.
