TERRAS GAUDA BLACK LABEL 2021

Product Sheet – Terras Gauda Etiqueta Negra 2021

Terras Gauda Etiqueta Negra 2021 is the most complex and mature expression of the O Rosal valley, a white wine that combines the strength of the Atlantic with the elegance of time and the patience of aging. Here, Albariño, Caíño Blanco, and Loureiro reach a new dimension, deeper, more gastronomic, more enveloping.

Sourced from the winery's oldest and most selected vineyards, on granite and sandy soils near the Miño estuary. The harvest is done manually with exhaustive selection. Fermentation begins in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and finishes in French oak barrels, where the wine rests on its lees for 6 months, contributing volume, elegance, and a subtle complexity that distinguishes it from other Albariños.

Tasting Notes

Bright golden yellow color with soft reflections. On the nose it is deep, elegant, and complex, with notes of ripe white fruit, candied citrus, dried flowers, subtle vanilla, and spicy touches, on a mineral and saline background. On the palate it is broad, unctuous, and structured, with balanced acidity, silky texture, and a long, persistent finish where fruit, wood, and Atlantic character merge in harmony.

Perfect for noble fish such as turbot or monkfish, baked seafood, creamy rice dishes, white meats, aged cheeses, and elaborate cuisine. A gastronomic, deep, and elegant white wine, ideal for grand tables and celebrations.

Terras Gauda Etiqueta Negra 2021 is the mature soul of Albariño, the whisper of the Atlantic, and the depth of O Rosal. A glass that breathes time, patience, and generations of expertise.
