WHITE WINE 100 % ALBARIÑO. SINGLE VINEYARD

Selección Finca Monte Alto is crafted with grapes from our Monte Alto plot. This emblematic plot lies at 150 m above sea level on 6.7 Has of land. Only around 10,000 bottles are produced, depending on the vintage. The vineyard is around 28 years old and the vines grow on a trellising structure, following a modified training sylvoz system, the soil has a sandy loam texture with a lot of pebbles due to its proximity to the Miño River.
2016 was an unusual year at Fillaboa, with heavy rain in Spring and heavy drought in the Summer. Budding was irregular and growth was slow, with a delay of 15 days in June compared to previous years. However, the heat and drought in the summer season compensated for the earlier delays and the harvest began on 14 September 2016. The fruit reached optimum levels of ripeness, with a high likely alcohol content and medium-low acidity levels, compared to Albariño wines in former years.
Production is limited to 6,443 bottles.
