La Val Finca Arantei Single Vineyard Albariño is a premium white wine produced by Bodegas La Val in the Rias Baixas appellation of Spain. The grapes are sourced from a single vineyard, Finca Arantei, which is located in the heart of the Salnés Valley. The vineyard is characterized by its granitic soils and Atlantic climate, which impart unique mineral and saline notes to the wine. The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo a gentle pressing before being fermented in stainless steel tanks. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and aromatic, with notes of citrus, green apple, and white flowers. It is a perfect match for seafood and other light dishes.
