Many producers consider José Luis Mateo to be the finest grape grower in Galicia. He's relentless in his search for excellence and is often unhappy with the results even when you think the wines are amazing. In fact, his wines are amazing, without a doubt the finest of Monterrei, and they transcend the appellation and find themselves among the finest wines from Galicia and from Spain. This time he has done a custom bottling for the Matador magazine in Spain, a white from 2016 that ranks among the finest he has produced so far. His annual production averages 35,000 bottles per year.

Description
Fennel tips and an afternoon dusk, citrus balm and cool falling wind. Candea is a medditerean dream of aromatics and salty coastline surf. Ripe lush pears blend into a field of flowers. Tense and long with invigoration. Local varieties combine to merge in a sonnet of sunlit rattan and lemon. A moment of pause and duration with fruit and character.Details
