D.O. Rías Baixas

grapes. Its character is the result of a direct pressing of selected grapes in their

optimum point of maturation. These grapes are grown on small vineyards that are

taken care of all year round. Total Production: 16,500 bottles

VINTAGE: 2023

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VINTAGE: This vintage produced a very good grape

due to the good climatic conditions. The climate was marked by a warm winter

and milder spring than in the previous cycle. In terms of tasting, the influence

of the climate on the young vineyards, from which Peitan is made, provided a

varietal wine that is very aromatic and fruity on the nose and palate. We firstly

come across the typical aromas of Albariño as well as citric notes.

VIÑA NORA was born in 2002 and it is perched on a natural terrace looking out on

River Miño. Bodegas Viña Nora is located in the municipality of As Neves, within the

winegrowing region of Condado do Tea, bordering Portugal. This location helps

extract more of the Albariño variety's potential as well as capture the maximum

expression of the land and its landscape in the wine.

VINEYARDS:

SOIL: Alluvial soils over granite rock.

AVERAGE AGE: between 10 and 20 years.

CLIMATE: An Atlantic type climate predominates, and because of the considerable

rainfall (1400 - 2000 mm) and humidity, the vines are trellis-trained over granite

posts with the aim of increasing their sun exposure and protecting them from

fungal diseases.

citric fruits, such as tangerine, stand out, as well as varietal and ripe notes, such as

apricot. It has a floral bottom note with hints of bay. On the palate, it is a very fresh,

varietal and persistent wine.
