Torre Do Olivar Expresion White

Torre Do Olivar Expression is a Ribeiro wine made solely with the Treixadura grape from our Torre do Olivar vineyard.

We call this wine “Finca Wine” because the grapes only come from a single vineyard, which provides a homogeneity of the harvested grapes influenced by similar soil and climate characteristics, which will clearly reflect its particular characteristics.

Torre Do Olivar comprises 110,000 m² of extension over terraces on a hillside in the Ribera del Miño Ourensano, the soils are clayey on sedimentary schists and the climate is of clear Atlantic influence with warm summers.

The vineyard was planted in 2002, although there are records of the cultivation of the vine on the estate at the beginning of the 20th century.

Torre Do Olivar or Torre de Puga served as a defensive element of the Pazo de Puga since at its 180 meters high you can see part of the Miño Valley and the entrance to the valley of the Rio Barbantiño can also see the road that connected the city of Ourense with the north and the Atlantic coast.

The Treixadura grape is the queen variety in Ribeiro Wine and provides fresh wines, with aromas of fresh fruit (apple, stone fruit…) and a slight floral component with a fresh acidity that invites you to continue drinking and a very pleasant final aftertaste.

The harvest is carried out manually in small boxes of 15 kg capacity and a double selection of the clusters is carried out in the vineyard and in the winery to later be pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks with temperature control. After this, the wine remains in contact with the lees for approximately 5 months prior to bottling.
