2022 Treixadura & Loureria, Adega do Demo - Riberio

The 2022 Bitoku from Adega do Demo is a lively little taste of Ribeiro, Galicia, where rolling hills, Atlantic influence and slate-and-clay soils give whites both freshness and character. Laura Rodríguez and Carlos Lorenzo farm organically, tending around four hectares and roughly 10,000 vines, with their own As Tapadas plot sitting at 280 metres. The blend is predominantly Treixadura with Loureira, naturally fermented in stainless steel after 18 hours’ cold maceration, with a brief spell on fine lees. Expect pear, white flowers, fennel, herbs and green apple, with a creamy texture and refreshing, subtly savoury finish. Brilliant with octopus, grilled prawns, seafood rice or tapas.
