ABADÍA DE SAN CAMPIO
ALBARIÑO D.O. RÍAS BAIXAS
GALICIA • SPAIN
"The essence of the Atlantic in every glass: sharp freshness, crystalline fruit and the noble character of O Rosal."
Varietal Purity and Atlantic Elegance
Abadía de San Campio is Bodegas Terras Gauda's tribute to the Albariño grape. Originating from vineyards located in the sub-region of O Rosal, at the mouth of the Miño River, this wine benefits from an exceptional microclimate that guarantees optimal ripening. After meticulous manual harvesting, the wine rests on its lees to gain unctuousness, resulting in a white that is pure joy: vibrant, full of citrus nuances and with a minerality reminiscent of the Galician sea breeze.
