GOMARIZ

A UNIQUE ESTATE

Gomariz is unique estate in itself: a rural area with a set of certain soil characteristics.

VINEYARDS

VINEYARDS

The plots of land are vinified separately to be able to observe the evolution of the grapes and respect the characteristics of the different estates that make up the personality of each of the vines.

PLANTING

The plants are grown on trellises and with a high density of planting (4000-5000 plants per hectare). The palisades are high allowing for maximum sun and air exposure.

VARIETIES

The winery started at the beginning of the 70’s adopting more traditional style wines from Ribeiro to produce more authentic wine, following a clear path to quality and authenticity towards autochthonous varieties.

CLIMATE

The peculiar climate is favoured by natural barriers and its meridional location in Galicia, that protect the territory from harsh Atlantic winds and storms and produce a microclimate of transition between oceanic and Mediterranean climates.

GEOGRAPHIC TERRAIN

Gomariz is located on one of the banks of the River Avia. The Ribeiro of the Avia is located on the tectonic fracture N-S, that articulates a large number of fluvial tributaries.

SOILS

In Gomariz we have 3 different types of soils in a relatively small zone, giving additional complexity to the style of the wines.
