Terras Gauda Magnum
1.5 Liters • Collector's Edition
"The magnitude of O Rosal: an emblematic blend that in Magnum format reaches its maximum fullness, offering a nobler, slower and more sophisticated evolution."
The Icon of Rías Baixas in its Best Format
Terras Gauda is much more than an Albariño; it is the masterful blend that defines the excellence of the O Rosal Valley. This presentation in Magnum format (1.5L) is the jewel for connoisseurs. The larger liquid volume protects the wine from premature oxidation, allowing the Albariño to maintain its structure, the Loureiro its floral intensity, and the Caíño Blanco its electric vivacity for much longer.

2. Sommelier's Notes
Appearance: Very bright straw yellow with greenish reflections. A greater unctuousness in the tears is perceived due to its large capacity format.
Nose: Astonishing intensity. Citrus notes of grapefruit and lime, ripe peach, noble laurel and an oceanic mineral background that remains fresher than in the standard format.
Palate: Vibrant, broad, and silky entry. It presents exceptional volume in the mouth, with a brilliant acidity that balances the whole and leads to an infinitely persistent finish.
