Bodegas Albamar

Bodegas Albamar, led by Xurxo Alba, is a notable wine producer based in the Salnés Valley, within the Rías Baixas region of Galicia, Spain. This winery, founded in 2006, is deeply rooted in tradition and family heritage. Xurxo Alba, taking over the family's winemaking legacy, has brought a blend of modern techniques and respect for heritage to their production.

The winery is known for its sustainable and organic farming practices, with a particular focus on Albariño, a signature grape of the region. Their vineyards, spread across about 10 hectares, are situated in close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, which imparts a unique character to their wines. The maritime climate and granitic sand and slate soils play a significant role in shaping the flavors and aromas of their wines.

In the cellar, Bodegas Albamar employs spontaneous fermentations with native yeasts, a practice not widely adopted in the region, which enhances the complexity and depth of their Albariño. The approach to winemaking varies from wine to wine and vintage to vintage, demonstrating a commitment to expressing the true character of each harvest.

Xurxo Alba's passion and expertise are evident in their diverse range of wines, which includes several expressions of Albariño and an intriguing array of reds made from local grape varieties like Caiño, Espadeiro, and Mencía. Each wine reflects the unique terroir and Alba's innovative winemaking approach.

The winery's connection to the local culture is also highlighted by Xurxo's mother running a furancho (a local Galician eatery) near the vineyards, adding to the authentic experience Bodegas Albamar offers.
