AS LAXAS

   The history of Bodegas As Laxas goes back to 1975 when Simon Ferro Family makes the first harvest.  The winery is located in a valley of the Rio Miño, in the village of Arbo. We produce 700.000 Kg aprox of grapes, we were among the first wineries in the Rias Baixas, even before it had DO, and a founding member of the Regulation Council at 1986.

   Our vineyards (55 own Hectars and 20 Hectares more in rent) are over 30 years old and are on granitic terraces faced south between 150 and 200 metres above sea level, enjoy an exceptional microclimate characterised by mild temperatures, with an annual average of 15º C, very little frost and abundant rainfall.       

   The harvest is done in mid-September manually.  After a selection of the best grapes and a meticulous pressing they give us an excellent quality must.   

   Fermentation of the alcohol takes place in stainless steel vats, at a controlled temperature of 18ºC for 15 days; Once it is fully fermented, all the wines are decanted to separate the dregs, followed by the “coupage” of the various vats .  

   Finally, the wine is then stabilized by applying cold, filtered and bottled, after passing through a microbe-free filter process to ensure that the wine is preserved in the bottle in perfect condition.
