This wine comes from the Rías Baixas region of Galicia, where the dominant color is blue — whether it's the deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean or the cross on the region’s flag. The name of the wine hints at a surprising discovery and the importance of seizing good fortune when it appears. The 35-year-old vines grew in sandy and granitic soils along the banks of the Miño River. The grapes were carefully hand-harvested and selected before being brought to the winery. COLOR Pale straw yellow with a subtle green hue. AROMA The aroma is layered with different shades of citrus — lime and lemon — intertwined with tropical notes of papaya, pineapple, and guava. TASTE The palate is deliciously fruity yet dry, citrusy, ripe pear-like, delicately herbal, endlessly long, and perfectly balanced. GRAPES Albariño
