The story of 𝗕𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗴𝗮𝘀 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗹 started when the winery founder, Benito Vázquez, planted the now emblematic old vines of Albariño at Finca Carballal. Those first vinifications, together with those of other winemakers, were the ones that demonstrated the enormous quality of the Albariño grape, being Benito the bigger promoter for the constitution of the DO Rías Baixas. The name 7 Cepas honors the seven brothers that are now leading the winery.
The viticulture in here is sustainable: vegetable cover, soils are enriched with organic compost, small yields, good phenolic maturations, spontaneous fermentation… everything in order to reflect, vintage after vintage, an honest picture of their terroir on a specific year.
The soils here are mainly granitic (mineral and sapid character) and sandy (contributing to texture).
Sete Cepas En Rama is the most natural approach to viticulture. An Albariño aged longer on its lees (and bottled with them) gives us a wine that is flintier and creamier, whithout losing a drop of its freshness.
