About the Wine

Attis Sousón 2018 is a red wine made from 100% Sousón grapes, grown in the Rías Baixas D.O. at 100 meters elevation on granitic Entisole soils with a sandy-clay character. Vines are trained in the traditional arbour (pergola) system at 800 vines/ha with a southwest-facing orientation. Yield is limited to 4,000 kg/ha. Grapes are hand-harvested in perforated crates, sorted, fully destemmed, and fermented spontaneously in 500 L open barrels. Total maceration lasts 15 days with two punch-downs per day. The wine undergoes spontaneous malolactic fermentation and is aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels. Clarified with egg white and sea water. Only 1,080 bottles were produced. Importer (Steep Hill).
