Nanclares y Prieto are masters of low-intervention, terroir-driven Albariño, and “A Graña” is one of their most compelling bottlings. Sourced from a tiny, old-vine plot planted on pure granite soils just a few kilometers from the Atlantic, this wine captures the salinity, structure, and mineral depth that make Rías Baixas so exciting.
The 2023 vintage is especially vibrant—full of lime peel, green apple, crushed stone, and sea spray, with mouthwatering acidity and a long, chalky finish. Fermented with native yeasts and aged on lees in neutral vessels, it’s textured but never heavy. A wine of tension, purity, and movement, built for seafood but fascinating on its own.
This is Albariño for Chablis lovers, oyster fiends, and mineral wine obsessives. Serve cold, sip slowly, and let it evolve in the glass.
