Winemaking Notes: The grapes underwent an 8-hour cold maceration prior to a temperature-controlled fermentation in 100% stainless steel tanks. The wine was held on the lees in tank. It was then cold stabilized to preserve freshness, filtered and bottled.

Tasting Notes: Clear, light yellow color. Nose is reminiscent of Spring flowers, violets and honeysuckle. Crisp and full-bodied with a waxy texture similar to white Rhone wines, this approachable wine has floral flavors on the palate with hints of stone and mineral which lingers. A real pleasure.

About: The Mendez family purchased the Finca os Cobatos Vineyard in 2006. Planted in the early '80s, this vineyard is one of the oldest vineyards in Monterrei. It encompasses 10 hectares planted to the white grape Godello and the red grape Mencía.
