ARTISANAL WINES FROM THE RIXAS BAIXAS REGION
We make Authentic, Artisanal and Atlantic wines in “Val do Salnés”, in the heart of the Rías Baixas wine region.
Attis
ATTIS is the wine quest of two brothers, Robustiano and Baldomero Fariña. Years ago, they joined the French Oenologist, Jean François Hebrard, to elevate winemaking in Rias Baixas wine region and the possibilities of its main varietals, such as albarino, and terroir aiming to elaborate artisanal and traditional wines, attending to their variety, plot or winemaking, bringing out each nuance and every aroma that gives them the climate, the terroir and, of course, the Atlantic.
THE NEWS
Autumnal Orange
For some time, the Orange Wines have been trending topic of the most experienced in the world of wine. This is not to say that they are a novelty since they have existed for a long time.
The Orange Wines were born in the Caucasus more than 6000 years ago. At that time, wine in Armenia and Georgia was produced in clay or terracotta amphorae of 500 to 800 litres, normally buried in the soil, which allowed to maintain good temperatures for long maceration, and, in addition, its opening facilitated manual work during the process. Interestingly, this long maceration process creates natural sulphites in greater quantity than usual preserving wine naturally from oxidation.
The name of these wines is given for their winemaking. They are white wines made as reds, and it is that skin contact which gives them colour towards orange notes. In addition to providing colour, this maceration and fermentation with the skins, brings a certain tannin to these unusual wines.
These white wines have structure, tannins and richness of aromas and flavours. Wines with incredibly good aging capacity.
Atlantic Reds
All our red Rias Baixas wines follow the same winemaking philosophy looking to captivate the one who tastes them to the most Atlantic Galicia. A rich and diverse land like its red varieties almost forgotten and abandoned in this secluded terroir of Spanish white wines. Wines with very good acidity that boast completely different personalities thanks to their different varietal expressions.
Our sweetest version
SITTA Pereiras, a single vineyard that gives its name, is a natural sweet white wine made stopping fermentation by cold. Adapting to our terroir, we produce a wine whose residual sugar compensates for the high acidity characteristic of this plot, resulting in a sweet and very fresh white wine ideal as an aperitif or for light desserts.
SITTA Dulce Nana is also a natural sweet white wine, made from dried grapes and aged in barrels. Dense and very sweet but with the freshness and aroma of an albarino white wine. A dessert itself.
Attis Mar
Authentic, artisanal, Atlantic, autochthonous… ATTIS Sea raises the values of our Albariño ATTIS to its maximum expression. The cold waters of the Atlantic are responsible for rocking our reference wine for six months and elevating it to a higher level.
ATTIS Sea is perceived in all its splendor if we savor it alone. The experience of enjoying it with Attis Lees is also more than advisable.
