Winemaker Notes:
Do Ferreiro Albariño is a blend of the best fruit from different zones and terroirs within the Sálnes Valley and it is the wine that defines the winery. It is serious and balanced, complex and very complete with fully developed aromas and flavors, with a long, harmonious palate featuring vibrant acidity and a strong mineral, stony component. Do Ferreiro is a very dry, varietally correct wine that is really representative of the Salnés Valley terruño. Expressive and harmonious, combining power and freshness; Do Ferreiro Albariño is capable of developing in bottle for 10 years or more.
Ratings and Reviews
93+ Points - Wine Advocate
"The 2023 Albariño, which represents their take of the vintage, was produced with grapes from 165 hectares of the 14 hectares they own. It goes back to the alcoholic degree of 2021, 12.5%, compared with the 13.5% of 2022. 2023 seems to be somewhere in between those two previous vintages: cooler and with a better distribution of rain than in 2022 but with warmer temperatures than 2021. This matures in stainless steel with lees until it's bottled. It has varietal notes of white flowers and grass. It's fresh and balanced, light to medium-bodied, easy to drink, sapid and tasty, with an almost salty twist in the finish despite its young age. It has a pH of 3.2 after going through full malolactic. Drink 2025-2032." -LG (7/11/25)
93 Points - Tim Atkin, MW:
'Tough in the vineyard' is how Manu Méndez describes the 2023 vintage, but it was worth all the hard work. This is typically pithy, nuanced and poised, with laurel and wet stone aromas, lemongrass and green apple flavours and a salty undertone. Méndez magic at an approachable price. 2024-30.
