Ribeiro had historically produced Spain’s most prestigious white wines, but in the early 20th century oidium, phylloxera, and war devastated the region and Ribeiro’s wines lost favor. Native vines were torn up, and Palomino was widely planted due to its higher yields. Cooperatives took over most of the production. By utilizing a mix of old-fashioned and modern winegrowing methods, Luis and a few others are responsible for the revitalization of artisanal Ribeiro winegrowing, and Luis’s vinhos tintos are considered to be the standard bearers for Ribeiro.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis comes from a single vineyard planted on decomposed granite located in the town of Ribadavia, and is comprised of the native grapes Treixadura (mostly), Godello, and Albariño.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRibadavia is known for producing lush, textured, and expressive wines, and A Teixa is exemplary of this.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe wine is fermented spontaneously with native yeasts in a 23hl foudre, raised on the lees for 1 year in the same foudre, and then released after 1 year in the bottle\u003c\/span\u003e.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PDX Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45351396278479,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/3021\/4607\/files\/IMG_7842.jpg?v=1783113438"},{"product_id":"luis-rodriguez-os-pasas-ribeiro-blanco-2022","title":"Luis Rodriguez, 'Os Pasas' Ribeiro Blanco 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eLuis Anxo Rodríguez Vázquez established his artisanal estate in 1988 in Arnoia, a village historically renowned for field-blended Ribeiro wines.
