Fazenda Agricola Augalevada
Fazenda Agricola Augalevada works the Ribeiro region of Galicia, where Atlantic moisture and granite soils shape white wines of mineral precision. The winery's portfolio centers on Albariño and Treixadura, indigenous varieties that thrive in this northwestern corner of Spain. A Bota de Iago, a blend of Albariño and Treixadura, stands as the flagship expression. Mercenário Parcela Eiravedra Blanco isolates Albariño from a single vineyard block, while Ollos de Roque showcases the textural depth Treixadura can achieve. Wine Advocate and Decanter have rated these wines, reflecting their technical caliber. The winery's approach emphasizes the terroir specificity that defines serious Ribeiro production—wines built on acidity, salinity, and the region's distinctive stone-fruit character rather than richness or oak.
