Benito Santos is a central figure in the modern history of Albariño and the Rías Baixas D.O. He began working in his grandfather’s vineyards in the 1930s and made wine for serving in his bar – wines that repeatedly won prizes in the annual Fiesta de Albariño in Cambados. He was instrumental in the creation of the Rías Baixas D.O. in the 1980s.
Pale straw color with hits of green. On the nose, great varietal intensity. Harmonious and elegant tropical fruits, stone fruits (apricot and peach) and citrus fruits, with recalls of fresh grass and hay. Fresh and full-bodied in mouth. Powerful and balanced aftertaste.
