Bodegas 'Eidosela Charquino' Albarino 2023

Founded in 2003, Bodegas Eidosela is the brainchild of a small group of enterprising, like-minded local growers (61 in total) dedicated to producing their own, quality Rías Baixas wines. Bodegas Eidosela is located in the sub-zone Condado de Tea (county of the River Tea, which flows into the Miño) and has a total of 48 hectares under vine, planted to Albariño, Treixadura and Loureiro in 600 separate parcels, the biggest being just 2 ha. Each vineyard is owned by a member of the Bodegas’ co-operative.

Prickly pear, small green apples, pomelo, cut white nectarine, preserved lemon, straw, a nice briny tang and lovely bitter herbs: rocket, white pepper, radish, cut fennel. 100% varietal in a very stylish, smooth, mid-weight register. With juicy acidity and a nice little nutty snap to close, the fruit tannins are perfectly handled (so often the Achilles heel of this tricky variety).
