La Val Albariño 2025 is a must for white wine lovers. A single-varietal wine made from three estates with very different soils: the granite of Taboexa gives the wine its acidity, the alluvial soil and pebbles of Arantei and Porto enhance its fruitiness, and the schist of Vilachán gives it its mineral character. Excellent varietal typicity.
La Val 2025 is a delicious coupage made from Albariño grapes from several estates located in the Condado de Tea subzone, just a few metres above sea level. These plots, with very different soils, bring great complexity to the wine, making it a flavoursome white wine that offers high levels of freshness and liveliness, with citrus notes and a long saline and mineral finish.
When José Limeres Guille decided to create Bodegas La Val in 1985, Albariño production in Galicia was almost entirely limited to homemade experiments. Only a handful of visionaries like him believed in the potential of this grape, today one of the country's most important varieties. Bodegas La Val promoted the creation of the D.O. Rías Baixas and has established itself as a benchmark in this region. Enjoy its Albariño La Val 2025, a white wine distinguished by its typicity and freshness.

Intenso color amarillo pajizo con brillantes destellos verdes, muy limpio y llamativo.
Nose
Intensos aromas atlánticos de hierbas frescas y laureles. Sutiles notas florales y cítricas yagradables recuerdos de frutas blancas y compotadas.
Mouth
En boca es todo frescura ysabrosidad, llenando el paladar de notas cítricas y terminando con un largo final salino y mineral.
"Que venga el Albariño. Sabroso, sedoso y amplio, es casi como un lienzo preparado sobre el que se puede colocar cualquier ingrediente. Y aunque su textura satinada le otorga una sensación de generosidad, nunca resulta dominante; al contrario, muestra una expresión cítrica y salina muy limpia que lo convierte en un vino extraordinariamente versátil en la mesa.
La clave está en encontrar uno realmente bueno, por eso me entusiasmó tanto probar La Val 2025, de Rías Baixas. (...)
La vendimia no fue sencilla; el verano resultó seco y cálido, seguido de lluvias en septiembre. Sin embargo, gracias a la vendimia manual, la vinificación por parcelas, el prensado parcial de racimos enteros para preservar la frescura de la fruta, las fermentaciones con levaduras autóctonas en depósitos de acero inoxidable y hormigón, y una crianza de seis meses sobre lías, consiguió elaborar un vino de textura puramente satinada y enorme capacidad de seducción. En él aparecen matices de almendra fresca, delicados toques cítricos y una marcada mineralidad salina, todo ello con apenas 12,5% de alcohol.
(...) conviene saber que la añada 2024 recibió una valoración igualmente entusiasta cuando fue probada en agosto."

Founded in 1985, La Val was one of the first brands of the D.O. Rías Baixas and one of the pioneering wineries to recognize the potential of the albariño grape. Its first step was the acquisition of the La Val estate (O Rosal), on the banks of the Miño River. From there, it expanded its vineyard by seeking high-quality land to start new plantations.
In 2003, it moved its production to the Arantei Estate, located in the heart of Condado de Tea, where it built new and modern facilities surrounded by 35 hectares of vineyards with an average age of 30 years. In a region dominated by smallholdings, La Val is one of the wineries with the most owned vineyards in the D.O. Rías Baixas, with 53 hectares spread across different estates.
