Description
Attis Caiño Tinto 2018 is one of the most unique and exclusive red wines from the Rías Baixas PDO, produced by Attis Bodega y Viñedos, the family-run winery founded by brothers Robustiano and Baldomero Fariña in the heart of the Val do Salnés, in Meaño (Pontevedra).
Made with 100% Caiño Tinto grapes, one of the Rías Baixas' most promising indigenous red varieties, which was almost forgotten and abandoned for decades in favor of Albariño. The vines, planted on sandy-clay granite soils at an altitude of 100 meters, produce small grapes with a characteristic dark blue color, high acidity, and great aromatic expressiveness. Production for this vintage was extremely limited, with only 570 bottles produced.
The winemaking process is entirely artisanal: manual harvesting in 15 kg perforated boxes, with sorting upon arrival at the winery, complete destemming, and spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in open 500-liter barrels, with 15 days of full maceration and two daily pump-overs. Manual vertical pressing. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation. Aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels. Fined with egg white and seawater.
Recognized with 91 points from Peñín.
