NACHO GONZÁLEZ LA PERDIDA MEU 2019
Nacho González is a winegrower and winemaker of natural wines "consecrated" in the few years that he has been making wine in his homeland Larouco (Valdeorras), where he vinifies in his "garage" cellar. He is not a prophet in his land, since although he has name followers in Spain as Pitu Roca del Celler de Can Roca, most of his sales occur in several countries of the world such as the USA, Canada, Japan, Korea, Australia and several European countries where he is already a producer of natural cult wines.
Of firm convictions, Nacho does not contemplate any other way of vinification that is not of absolute respect for nature and work in the vineyard and vinification without chemical interventions. In 2018, in total, it produced about 12,000 bottles distributed in several “cuvees” such as Godello's white “O Pando”, a pink “Poscrito” and the reds “O Poulo”, “O Trancado” and its new wine “Meu” . Its wines do not carry any type of sulfur addition or addition of any exogenous product.
The 2019 vintage was characterized by the abundance of grapes and by the optimal conditions in which the harvest took place.
