Coto de Gomariz Finca O Figueiral Colleita Seleccionada 2018

The top-of-the-range 2018 Finca O Figueiral Colleita Seleccionada comes from the vineyard that was first replanted exclusively with indigenous grape varieties in 1978. The wine is 70% Treixadura and the remainder a lot of other grapes—Godello, Albariño, Loureira, Lado, Silveiriña, Caíño Blanco, Dona Blanca and others. It fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel and matured with the lees in 500- and 600-liter oak barrels for 10 months followed by one year in tank. Part of this wine, around 20% also contributes to the blend of the eponymous Coto de Gomariz. It's expressive, balanced, ripe and pungent with piercing acidity; it is powerful and has the ingredients and freshness to develop nicely in bottle. It's layered, complex and deep with subtleness and clout. 3,333 numbered bottles were filled in September 2020.
