English Summary

Cuadro de texto: Two basic aims: Quality and Exclusivity

Cuadro de texto: The base of the quality of the wine, it is the grape. In robaliño we only elaborate grape proceeding from our estate, it stamps an exclusive character. The estate is shaped in terraces protected by walls of stone hand placed, producing the effect of natural accumulator of heat, detaching in the night the heat absorbed during the day, preventing vegetative stops and allowing an ideal and homogeneous ripeness. The volume of these stones is about 10.000m3, more than 26.000 tons, 3,5 times the weight of the Tower Eiffel of Paris.

Cuadro de texto: From 2.002 we are certified in ISO 9001

Cuadro de texto: The zone of the County of the Tea enjoys a differentiated and particular microclimate, one of the reasons that allow to reach easily unusually high temperatures in Galicia, (maybe the major ones at the whole Rías Baixas), it is the greenhouse effect produced by a convection of the air. The wind that passes over the surrounding mountains, (up to 1.300m), does that the warm air of the valley re-circulates without vanishing, provoking a gradual increase of the temperature, up to achieving maxims superior to 40ºC.

Cuadro de texto: Major temperature implies minor assault of plagues, major health of the grape and a more complete ripeness (of average we have 104 days with top temperatures to 30ºC). For it we prune to take part in the Plan of Integrated Production, step immediately previous to the ecological agriculture, limiting to the maximum the employment of fytosanitory agents. An important thermal variations, benefit the appearance of aromatic components in the grape; a very cold winter (without frost) and a very warm summer, facilitate the development of one of the maximum virtues of the Liñar de Vides, its intense varietal aroma.
