Producer notes: "Muti Albariño was conceived as a tribute to Patrick Mata’s mother Christiane, with whom he spoke German at home – “Muti” means “Mom” in German. Made by Rodrigo Mendez and Patrick’s lifelong friend, Alberto Orte, Muti is a classic expression of Salnés Albariño. Muti is an exploration of one single site (called Eira da Juapa in the local Galego language) in the village of Meis, about 15 minutes from the Atlantic coast. The pure, saline intensity of this wine reflects not only its proximity to the sea, but also the extreme age of the vines themselves: more than half in this vineyard are 120 years old, pergola trained and own rooted in decomposed, sandy granite. The remainder are still over 30 years old, with extremely low yields and completely harvested by hand by Rodri Méndez and his team, who are all natives to the collection of villages in this area, where the Rias Baixas denomination was established and founded by his grandfather. The wine is macerated on the skins for 24 hours. 67% of the wine is aged for 12 months in 1000L foudres and 33% remains in stainless steel tank."
