"The 2021 Fusco was produced with Menc¡a from the north of Ribeira Sacra, from many small plots all in the zone of Chantada and Mi¤o on granite and clay soils. The destemmed grapes have a long maceration (15 to 30 days, depending on the year). It matured in stainless steel and was bottled unoaked, looking for freshness and drinkability. It has 13% alcohol with good freshness and a fruit-driven, primary profile with juicy fruit. 12,000 bottles were produced."
