Description
Pazo Señorans is one of DO Rías-Baixas’ leading producers.The influence of owners Marisol Bueno and Javier Mareque on the development of the DO Rías-Baixas appellation and its primary grape variety, Albariño, goes back to their purchase in 1979 of a 16th-century country estate wine kiwi orchards and old-vine Albariño vineyards. Located in the town of Meis, Pazo Señorans lies close to the sea on acidic, sandy soils created by the natural decomposition of the granite bedrock below. Marisol and Javier were quick to recognize the potential of Albariño and were instrumental in the creation of the DO just a decade after their arrival in Meis. Today, the wines from this estate demonstrate the grape’s ageing potential in a way that few other producers can emulate.
This has lots of intensity. Small stone fruits, hints of white flowers, herbs, fennel, and bay leaves, with a clear earthy, mineral, and saline background. Still vibrant on the palate, with immediate freshness, a fruity punch, herbaceous notes and sharp acidity that supports the freshness throughout as well subtle saline notes on the finish.
