Columna Albariño is a white wine made exclusively from the Albarino grape variety grown in the Spanish appellation of Rias Baixas, located along Spain's Atlantic coast. The cool maritime climate helps preserve the acidity in the grapes and may play a part in the saline mineral finish, which this grape often exhibits in this location. The winemaking is modern with gentle pressing to avoid extracting any bitterness from the grape's thicker skins, and temperature-controlled fermentation in neutral vessels to preserve the wine's orange-scented perfume. The end result is a fruit-forward, acid-driven wine that matches well with seafood dishes and lunchtime salads.

Elaborated with meticulous attention, this Albariño undergoes rigorous quality control from vineyard monitoring to complete maturation. Hand-harvested in 20kg crates, it undergoes a meticulous selection process on sorting tables. Cold maceration at 10ºC for six hours precedes gentle grape pressing, followed by static settling in stainless steel tanks. Alcoholic fermentation, controlled at 17ºC for fifteen days, ensures optimal flavor extraction. After tangential filtration and bottling in an inert atmosphere, the wine rests for a month before its market release.

The perfectly ripened grapes are carefully selected while still on the vine. Once in the winery, they are cooled to 10°C and macerated on the skins. Following this, a gentle pressing takes place, and the grapes undergo temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The aging process for this pure Albariño also occurs entirely in stainless steel, preserving the wine's fresh, vibrant character. This meticulous approach ensures that the Albariño retains its crispness and aromatic intensity, resulting in a wine that is elegant, refreshing, and true to the varietal’s essence.
