“An incredible Ribeiro. Very long finish and amazing persistent finish!”— Martha
A Galician white from thirty- to fifty-year-old vines in Leiro, right by the Avia river. Atlantic breezes travel up the Miño and shape a wine that is mineral and generous at the same time — exactly what you want with grilled fish and a warm evening.
€22 the bottle. €99 the box of six — a 25% saving, and six different labels in the case.
The labels are not decoration. Isabel put a different piece of Galician seafood on every bottle, drawn in fine mosaic work in turquoise, coral and violet. Between the six of them they are more or less the menu this wine was built for.
A case holds all six and no two bottles match. It is the only wine we sell where people ask which one they can take home — and the only one where the empty bottles end up on a windowsill rather than in the recycling.
Pulpo a feira — paprika, good oil, a wooden plate.
Cracked, cold, eaten with your fingers and no ceremony.
Seared hard, or baked in the shell with breadcrumbs.
Split and grilled. Lemon. Very little else.
Boiled in seawater. That is the whole recipe.
Whole on the grill, skin crisp, off the bone at the table.
Serve it properly cold, 6–8°C. Everything on the labels works, and so does a prawn rice, a vegetable quiche, or a plate of Ibérico ham with pan con tomate. The mineral freshness and the volume make it as good as an aperitif as it is right through a meal.
An agricultural engineer from the Polytechnic University of Madrid who went back to her family’s vineyards in Ribeiro to make wine the way it was meant to be made — old vines, picked by hand, as little intervention as she can get away with.
Every vintage of Siah carries the Atlantic character of Leiro. It is a small operation and the wines show it, in the best possible way.
August anywhere in Spain: the light going long and gold, the smell of something on a grill, a table outside once the heat finally drops. This is the wine for that hour — fresh enough for the weather, serious enough for the food, and at a price that means you can keep a case in the fridge all summer.
