Rias Baixas DO Albariñho Tra Los Muros 2019 Pazo Señorans

What kind of wine is it

Tras Los Muros by Pazo Señorans is a white wine made exclusively from Albariño grapes, originating from the renowned Rías Baixas region in Galicia. It stands out for its fresh and elegant profile, supported by a well-defined structure resulting from careful maturation. This single-varietal wine offers a perfect balance between acidity and body and demonstrates a remarkable capacity for aging over time. The meticulous winemaking process provides a faithful expression of the grape variety, enhances its natural freshness, and ensures a rich and lingering taste profile.

Where it comes from

The grapes are sourced from Rías Baixas, an evocative coastal area of Galicia strongly influenced by its proximity to the ocean. In particular, they come from the vineyards adjacent to the winery, a detail that inspired the wine’s name. This geographic proximity allows for immediate handling of the grape bunches right after harvest, thus preserving their quality intact. The Atlantic microclimate encourages crisp and vibrant expressions and gives this Albariño an unmistakable aromatic precision and a flavor continuity that fully reflects the character of the region.

How it is produced

The process begins with a manual harvest in small crates, essential to maintain the integrity of the grape bunches until they arrive at the winery. Winemaking is followed by six months of aging in oak barriques, then a further six months resting in stainless steel tanks. Once bottled, the wine undergoes a long glass aging period of fifteen months. This meticulous process is designed to integrate the vibrant acidity with a structured texture, while maintaining a clean profile and impressive overall complexity.

Tasting notes

Visually, it appears bright and inviting and introduces a nose defined by fresh and vibrant aromas. Clear notes of green apple and pear stand out, accompanied by delicate citrus nuances and a subtle, perfectly integrated hint of oak. On the palate, it is silky and refreshing, showing a harmonious balance between acidic tension and volume. The finish is neat and persistent, where the subtle wood notes add depth without ever overpowering the pure expression of the fruit.

Food pairings

At the table, this white wine effortlessly accompanies elegant seafood dishes and delicate fillets of white fish. Its structure, enhanced by meticulous aging, also makes for excellent pairings with white meats and delicately flavored risottos. Its pronounced freshness perfectly supports the texture of the dishes and ensures a smooth and pleasant drinking experience. Local inspiration suggests classic pairings such as Galician-style octopus or traditional savory fish pies, where saltiness and succulence find an ideal counterpoint.

When to serve it

It’s the perfect choice whenever you desire a white that combines vibrance and consistency, and it works both as a refined aperitif and throughout a meal. Thanks to the oak aging and long bottle rest, it offers a continuous and precise profile with interesting evolution. Enjoy it in the short term for maximum clarity and tension, or cellar it to appreciate greater complexity and structure. Its notable longevity makes it ideal for occasions requiring a well-defined, mature glass.
