Vines on a Trellis

Posted on October 17, 2020 by Roger Harmston Posted in Terroir Leave a comment

The 40 year old vines are grown on trellis systems that are exclusive to the area.  The Mino River is close by and so is the Atlantic to give a soft climate without big temperature changes in O Rosal.


Major crispness and freshness from the Albariño grapes – unique to the region.


Remarkably dry with lots of aroma and a nicely balanced acidity. Think fresh fruit .. melons, and peach to build the complexity.


Serve it cold (10-12 C) and you’ll see that the finish hangs around for quite awhile.

Soft, stony soil. Atlantic Breezes. Welcome to the Maldonado district of Southern Uruguay.

Small town that has built world acclaim

This is a true terroir wine. A distinctive identity, strong personality and sense of place.
We loved it’s immediate intensity, the dryness and balanced acidity with a crisp finish.

This is one of the Goddess of Wine’s favourite whites and we heartily agree.
