It’s hard to believe Pazo de Señorans have been making wine for a mere 28 years given that they are now considered one of the finest producers in Spain. Anna, the winemaker, is fastidious in her approach, which could not be more pared back or simple. Having worked with the same growers over many years, there are no secrets to the success, it is all about the quality of the fruit.
Description
The 2012 Pazo Señorans Selección de Añada is an exceptional Albariño, aged on its lees for up to 36 months in small stainless steel tanks, highlighting the aging potential of this grape. This wine comes from a 4-hectare single vineyard in the Los Bancales region, with vines over 45 years old. Pazo de Señorans, recognized as one of Spain’s finest producers, has crafted this wine with meticulous care, using high-quality fruit from long-established grower relationships. The result is a rich, complex wine with a unique ability to age.
Reviews
Greg Sherwood 97
"The seriously fine Pazo Senorans Seleccion Anada 2013 is a fabulously cool, taut, creamy Albarino creation that expresses both youthful and subtle tertiary aromatics all at once. Matured in stainless steel for 36 months on its fine lees, the wine is then aged for a further 72 months in tank before being bottled in April 2022. The wine always shows such incredibly fine-tuned, pure precision without any oxidative notes whatsoever. On the nose, the 2013 positively bristles with hints of dried herbs, acacia flowers, quince puree, pithy waxy lemons, honeysuckle, yellow grapefruit, black currant, and complex notes of smoky lees, and crushed granite minerality. The palate baffles the mind with an electrically charged bright acidity that invigorates the senses with its intensity and freshness. The wine unfurls in the glass for hours, revealing layer upon layer of ripe stone fruits, crunchy white peach, tart yellow grapefruit, gooseberry, and tart green apple. A truly wonderful, eccentric style of premium Albarino that every fine wine lover should drink at least once! Drink now and over the next 8 to 10 years."- Greg Sherwood MW.
