Coto de Gomariz
Coto de Gomariz
Located in the Ribeiro region in Galicia, Coto de Gomariz is made up of several vineyards covering a total of about fifty acres in the districts of Gomariz, Vieite, Esposende and Beade.
In 1979 the estate marked the first step towards restoration of the native Ribeiro varieties, including the white Albarino, Treixadura, Loureira and Godello varieties, as well as the red SousÛn, Ferrol, MencÌa, Brancellao and CaiÒo Longo.
The winemaking is organic and the winery is currently
undertaking a conversion to biodynamic viticulture
Coto de Gomariz wines are the result of a unique combination of an Atlantic climate, low levels of rainfall, long hours of sunshine and sharp contrasts between daytime and
night time temperatures, as well as unusual granitic and schist soils.
