Finca Viñoa, La Viñoa Ribeiro Blanco V, Avia Valley, Ribeiro, Galicia, Spain, 2023

Producer Profile

Finca Viñoa forms part of Bodega y Viñedos Pazo Casanova – Finca Viñoa, a Ribeiro project launched around the year 2000 by three local friends (an oenologist, a wine producer and a sommelier).

Their aim was to recover historic vineyards in the Avia valley and restore the prestige of classic Ribeiro wines through singular, high‑quality bottlings rooted in tradition and place.

Viticulture

Sourced from organically farmed vineyards in the Ribeiro DO, planted on granite and slate soils that impart freshness and minerality. The vines are managed carefully to maintain low yields and preserve aromatic purity.

Winemaking

Grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed, with fermentation carried out using native yeasts in stainless steel tanks to retain the wine’s bright fruit and freshness. No oak ageing is used to preserve crispness and varietal character.

Tasting Note

Bright and refreshing, this white showcases lively aromas of green apple, citrus zest, and white flowers, complemented by subtle hints of fresh herbs and a delicate minerality. The palate is crisp and balanced, with vibrant acidity and a clean, refreshing finish.

Food matching

Fresh seafood salads, grilled sardines, or light tapas featuring herbs and citrus.
