Ededia 2022

The single-vineyard white 2022 Ededia was sourced from a 0.35-hectare plot of 40-year-old vines planted with the old Godello clone in the zone of Treval in the village of Rubiá, where the soils are rich in clay and limestone (when the majority is slate and alluvial). It fermented with indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels, where it was kept in contact with the lees for 14 months followed by four months in stainless steel. They picked the grapes very early, on August 28, and the wine still achieved 13.8% alcohol but keeping the balance and freshness. It's a warmer place with a south exposure, and the wine is always riper and more voluptuous. It has riper fruit but keeps the freshness; perhaps the whites reflect the heat of the vintage less than the reds. 1,128 bottles were filled in May 2024.
