Terra de Asorei Nai e Señora Albariño Val do Salnés Rías Baixas 2022
|
||||||||||||||||||
Tasting Notes100% Albariño from the Salnès Valley, carefully harvested in 20kg cases after the hot, dry summers of the region. Fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks (16°C) for 21 days. Bright pale yellow with green hues. Nose is filled w/ stone fruit, grapefruit and spearmint w/ some yeasty notes in the background. Dry, medium bodied with fresh acidity, white peaches, melon, lemon, w/ good fruit weight on mid palate giving the impression of some lees contact. Some herbal notes persist (chives and basil) with a candied lemon finish. Summer in a glass. Nai is our tribute to both, the origin of Albariño and contemporary women. This wine is made considering the taste of the new palates. Galician poets and artists of the first half of the 20th century referred to "nai", which means “mother” in Galician, as a tribute to working women. One of the most significant examples is the sculpture of “Naiciña” by Francisco Asorei. Those poets symbolized with "nai e señora" their hallmark with their land, Galicia. |
Critical Praise90 points Treve Ring (Gismondi on Wine) Nai E Señora is a tribute to Galician women, as imaged by the silhouette gracing the front label. Nai translates to mother, in Galician. From clay and pink granite, this albariño spent 30 days macerating in stainless before ferment and a brief stint on lees. Expressive aromas of grapefruit and pink florals lead to a tight and electric palate, plumped with white peach, and finishing with a moreish river rock stoniness. Lovely view of albariño. |
