La Vendimia Episode 1: Envínate

The time we spent with Alfonso Torrente, 1/4 of Envínate in their ethereal Ribeira Sacra plots was incredibly special, something akin to a mythical experience. Amongst the mist and lush green, Alfonso told us stories of these ancient lands with a winemaking history that dates back to Roman times.Mind bogglingly beautiful, steep and treacherous, this region is a difficult one to grow grapes in, but the Envínate team has never shied away from a challenge. The meticulous efforts of Alfonso and his team have resulted in wines that are both covetedand celebrated around the world. High altitudes, indigenous grapes, mineral-rich soils and minimal intervention winemaking allow these wines to sing in the glass. Every Galician wine in the Envínate portfolio tells a captivating story of this spiritual place and its rich history.
