The legendary Palacio de Fefinanes became the first winery to bottle Albariño in 1928 under the visionary leadership of Juan Gil. The winery, which is housed in the cloisters of a stunning Renaissance palace built in 1621, is still run by Gil’s descendants to this day and continues to focus on producing the very best Albariños possible with the help of the 66 local grape-growing families who supply the fruit.
The limited production 1583 Albariño de Fefinanes is an unusual style which was amongst the very first oak-matured Albariños to be produced in Spain. The name commemorates the birth of the very first Viscount of Fefiñanes who did much of the early construction work, giving the Palacio de Fefinanes its current appearance. This wine is made in a richer and fuller bodied style than the other Fefifanes wines thanks to the three months of ageing on the lees in French barrels.
On the nose there are generous notes of honeydew melon, white peaches, toast and almond blossom, while the first sip reveals a creamy texture, mouthwatering freshness, and hints of pastries, roasted nuts, and ripe stone fruit which linger long on the tongue.
