Two new wines from the Galicia region of north west Spain include the first biodynamic white wine from the area.

 

Flavours of Spain is exclusively stocking Pedralonga Barrica 2006, made from Albariño grapes and fermented for six months in French oak barrels. It has an intense bouquet of green herbs and some smoke.

 

From the Valdeorras sub-region is Pagos de Galir 2005, made from Mencia grapes and matured for a year in oak.

 

The basics: White £22.05 for an individual bottle;  red £18.75, Flavours of Spain
