Description
Viticulture
This single vineyard wine comes from 4 ha vineyard and vines that are over 45 years old and planted around the Los Bancales region.
Winemaking
The Seleccion Añada is unique for an Albariño in that it is aged on its lees in small steel tanks for up to 36 months or so. This demonstrates above all the ageing potential of Albariño, and Señorans in particular, that we think no other producer can mimic. Aged in stainless steel on its lees for over 30 months.

Producer Profile
Pazo Señorans is one of DO Rías-Baixas’ leading producers.
The influence of owners Marisol Bueno and Javier Mareque on the development of the DO Rías-Baixas appellation and its primary grape variety, Albariño, goes back to their purchase in 1979 of a 16th-century country estate wine kiwi orchards and old-vine Albariño vineyards. Located in the town of Meis, Pazo Señorans lies close to the sea on acidic, sandy soils created by the natural decomposition of the granite bedrock below. Marisol and Javier were quick to recognize the potential of Albariño and were instrumental in the creation of the DO just a decade after their arrival in Meis. Today, the wines from this estate demonstrate the grape’s ageing potential in a way that few other producers can emulate.
