Drink it now or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant, but best to open it half an hour before service. The Luis A. Rodríguez family winery was founded in 1988 in A Paixón, Galicia. The winery, which owns just under 3 hectares of vineyards spread across 29 plots, practices environmentally friendly viticulture with low yields and produces premium wines from native varieties. Vina de Martin Escolma is a blend of Albariño, Treixadura, Lado, and Torrontés grapes, hand-picked from the winery's oldest vines, planted on the steep slopes of the Ribeiro DOC, and characterized by sandy-siliceous soils. After harvest, each variety is vinified separately and spontaneously in oak barrels of various sizes. The finished wine then ages for 12 months in new barrels and for 3 years in the bottle. Its name (Escolma) in Galician means "selection”, and indeed, the wine is produced only in the best vintages. In the glass, the wine reveals a straw-yellow color with golden highlights. The nose opens with hints of white fruit, citrus, and herbs, followed by a well-defined mineral note. On the palate, it is rounded, distinctive, and smooth, with a lively, refreshing acidity and a juicy texture. The finish is long and fruity, with a light smoky touch. Try it with grilled turbot, Galician-style octopus, or sushi.
