Mr Castro cultivates his vineyard with the minimum intervention - 'lutte raisonnée' in French terms.

Mr Castro produces three different cuvées of Albariño. The wine is made in small, temperature-controlled, stainless steel vats. Fining is with bentonite - which means that this wine is suitable for vegetarians.
