As Sortes takes the selection process one step further by employing grapes from vines between 35 and 92 years old from sortes situated in a natural amphitheater, fermenting them with indigenous yeasts and aging them in 500 liter French oak barrels (20% new). Each barrel is monitored closely and will be gently warmed is the fermentation shows signs of faltering. For many years this was the benchmark wine of Valdeorras, and arguably one of Spain’s best white wine, until it was unseated by Rafa’s newest cuvées: Sorte Antiga, Sorte Souto and Sorte O Soro.
