The Albariño O Equilibrio Fulcro 2023 is a dry white wine from Rías Baixas, Galicia. Sourced from a blend of vineyard sites, including the Finca A Xesteira which features old vines planted on schist soils, this wine is matured for around 12 months in used French oak barrels of 400 to 700 litres. Malolactic fermentation is blocked to retain an acidic backbone. The 2023 vintage offers an intense profile of citrus fruits, green apple and white flowers, leading to a profound, voluminous palate that perfectly balances creamy texture with crisp, tense acidity and a persistent, saline finish.

The 2021 Nas Dunas, when tasted next to the 2022, feels even younger and more austere and elegant, subtler and aging at a glacial pace. It was produced with grapes from vines planted on very fine beach sand and schist and fermented and matured in a 700-liter French oak barrel, where the wine matured for 11 months. The wine is stunning, and tasted blind, I`d guess it were much younger. It has contained ripeness and 12.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.28, 7.2 grams of acidity and the super fine texture that is the signature of this wine—a wine that has reached an amazing level of refinement and complexity, among the best in the appellation. Bravo! Seeing how young it is, I guess it should age effortlessly for a decade or more. 900 bottles were filled in August 2022. - Luis Gutiérrez
