Rodrigo Mendez "Salvora" Albarino 2024
Shipping calculated at checkout
Rodrigo Méndez is one of the most talked-about young winemakers in Rías Baixas, working with old, low-yielding Albariño vines and a minimal-intervention approach that stands apart from the region's more industrial norm. Salvorá takes its name from the wild, wind-battered island off the Galician coast, evoking the Atlantic character that defines these wines.
Expect saline, citrus-driven Albariño with real textural depth and a distinctly maritime edge—less about tropical fruit, more about salt spray and stone. This is Rías Baixas for people who want to taste the ocean.
Pair it with grilled octopus, oysters, or any fresh seafood.
Region: Rías Baixas, Galicia, Spain
