Espadeiro is one of Galicia’s most intriguing native red varieties of the Atlantic coast. Traditionally overshadowed by its white Albaniño counterpart, this ancient grape thrives in the granite soils and maritime breezes of the Salnés Valley. The nose is bright and layered, expressing red fruit with notes of freshly crushed strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries. Hints of vanilla and sweet spice follow. As it opens, nuances of wild herbs and wet granite are revealed, reflecting the wine’s coastal terroir. On the palate, it opens softly. The acidity is bright and well integrated, while silky tannins frame the fruit, giving a balanced structure. Juicy red berries, a touch of creaminess, and a fine minerality carry through to the finish.
