  • El GPP Reclama Campañas Promocionales Para Fomentar La Cultura Del Vino
    Hoy, en el debate de una moción del PP en la Comisión de Agricultura, Pesca y Alimentación El GPP reclama campañas promocionales para fomentar la cultura del vino • Miguel Viso pide una financiación extra para el sector, más allá de los Programas Nacionales de Apoyo al Sector Vitivinícola Español • Recuerda que España es líder en superficie de viñedo, con 969.000 hectáreas, y el tercer país del mundo productor de vino • Destaca que Galicia cuenta con cinco denominaciones de origen y con cuatro indicaciones geográficas protegidas • Afirma que las medidas propuestas por el Ministerio “no se adaptan a la realidad gallega y no facilitan el relanzamiento del sector del vino gallego” GPP SENADOGPP 27, mayo, 2021. El senador del Grupo Popular por Ourense, Miguel Viso, ha reclamado hoy al Gobierno, durante el debate de una moción del PP, que establezca campañas promocionales para fomentar la cultura del vino y desarrollar plataformas telemáticas de comercialización y que solicite a la Comisión Europea una financiación extra, más allá de los Programas Nacionales de Apoyo al Sector Vitivinícola Español (PASVE). La iniciativa del PP, debatida en la Comisión de Agricultura, Pesca y Alimentación y rechazada por los votos en contra del PSOE, también pide al Ejecutivo que apruebe un Plan Estratégico para la Internacionalización del Sector Vitivinícola, comprometiendo los recursos económicos necesarios para el apoyo de las exportaciones y la apertura de nuevos mercados, tanto en terceros países como en los países comunitarios. El último punto de la moción solicita “desarrollar acciones dirigidas a potenciar el consumo interno, garantizando la promoción interior en el marco de la Organización Común de Mercados (OCM), incluyendo el apoyo al enoturismo”.

  • Godello 2017
    GODELLO 2017 THE COLLECTION OF SPANISH GRAPE VARIETIES A white grape variety native to the north-eastern region of Spain, probably originating from the slopes of the Sil River in the D.O. Valdeoras... It can be found throughout Galicia, northern Portugal and the D.O. Bierzo. Traces of its production have been found dating back to the 12th century in the areas of Castile-Leon and Bierzo. Outside of these regions, it is grown in the D.O. Abona, El Hierro, La Palma, Ribeira Sacra, Ribeiro, Tacoronte-Acentejo, Valle de Güimar, Valle de la Orot- rava and Icoden-Daute- Isora (Tenerife). Sometimes there is confusion with Verdejo if you don’t see its leaves. Respected for its well develo- ped qualities, Godello shows a complex aromatic profile. It prefers dry climates and low humidity soils. Ages well in barrels. 1.200 Ha planted in Spain TECHNICAL INFORMATION Harvest time: End of September Classification: Bierzo DO Origin of the grapes: Bierzo Grape Variety: Godello Vinification: Fermentation at 12ºC for 15 days and completion of the fermentation at 16ºC. Aging on lees 60 days with daily batonages of 5 minutes Barrel ageing: No Winemaker: Ruben Magallanes TASTING NOTES Superb golden colour, delicate and radiant. Fresh and expressive nose, with a seductive note of lemons, white fruit (golden apple) and early spring flowers and a hint of yeast from the lees. The supple and full bodied mouthfeel is complemented by exquisite acidity. The mid-palate is ample and the lingering finish reveals citrus notes, cut grass and spices. PAIRING Ribs, roasts and cutlets, as well as curried poultry, pasta with shellfish and seafood will all go perfectly with this wine for dinner with friends.

  • GALICIA: VINO DE LA RIBEIRA SACRA Enoturismo
    GALICIA: VINO DE LA RIBEIRA SACRA Enoturismo RIBEIRA SACRA, ENTRE EL MIÑO Y EL SIL Al sur de Lugo y al norte de Ourense encontramos una de las zonas vinícolas más espectaculares de la geografía española: la Ribeira Sacra. Flanqueada por los ríos Miño y Sil, se sitúa en una orografía de gargantas y cañones de pronunciada verticalidad, que la transforman en una tierra especial. LOS VIÑEDOS, LAS UVAS Y LOS VINOS DE LA RIBEIRA SACRA El clima de la Ribeira Sacra es más continental que atlántico, con veranos largos y caluros, otoños templados y abundantes precipitaciones. Los viñedos se sitúan en un área que está dividida en cinco subzonas, cada una de ellas con un microclima diferente. Las vides se plantan en terrazas, en los desfiladeros de los dos ríos y en los valles, creando un paisaje espectacular, pero siendo una zona muy difícil para la labor vinícola. Las uvas más características de la región son: GODELLO, ALBARIÑO y TREIXADURA (vinos blancos) MENCÍA, BRANCELLAO y MERENZAO (vinos tintos) La vendimia tiene lugar a mediados de septiembre y se realiza de forma manual dadas las características del lugar. El vino se sigue elaborando de forma tradicional. En la D.O. Ribeira Sacra hay tres vinos principales, todos ellos varietales: tinto de Mencía y blancos Albariño y Godello. GASTRONOMÍA Degustar la gastronomía propia de la zona, regada con los vinos de la Ribeira Sacra, es uno de los mejores placeres que podemos disfrutar si visitamos ésta región. Por supuesto, la base es la cocina tradicional gallega así como los productos de río.

  • To Identify Terroir and Vineyard Yeast Differences According to Appellation of Origin (AOP) and Biogeographic Origin
    Article Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Satellite Imagery (NDVI) to Identify Terroir and Vineyard Yeast Differences according to Appellation of Origin (AOP) and Biogeographic Origin Sergio Vélez 1,* , Enrique Barajas 1 , Pilar Blanco 2, José Antonio Rubio 1 and David Castrillo 2,* 1 Instituto Tecnológico Agrario de Castilla y León (ITACyL), Unidad de Cultivos Leñosos y Hortícolas, 47071 Valladolid, Spain; [email protected] (E.B.); [email protected] (J.A.R.) 2 Estación de Viticultura e Enoloxía de Galicia (EVEGA-AGACAL), Ponte San Clodio s/n, 32428 Leiro-Ourense, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (S.V.); [email protected] (D.C.) Abstract: Terroir is one of the core concepts associated with wine and presumes that the land from which the grapes are grown, the plant habitat, imparts a unique quality that is specific to that growing site. Additionally, numerous factors can influence yeast diversity, and terroir is among the most relevant. Therefore, it can be interesting to use Remote Sensing tools that help identify and give helpful information about the terroir and key characteristics that define the AOP (Appellation of Origin). In this study, the NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) calculated from Landsat 8 imagery was used to perform a spatio-temporal analysis during 2013, 2014, and 2015 of several vineyards belonging to four different AOP in Galicia (Spain). This work shows that it is possible to use Remote Sensing for AOP delimitation. Results suggest: (i) satellite imagery can establish differences Citation: Vélez, S.; Barajas, E.; in terroir, (ii) the higher the NDVI, the higher the yeast species richness, (iii) the relationship between Blanco, P.; Rubio, J.A.; Castrillo, D.

  • Escalada Do Sil
    Escalada do Sil Escalada Do Sil represents a revival of a style of wine that once upon a time was popular in the high elevation region of Valdeorras. Today Valdeorras is mostly known for the production of white Godello grapes, however before the 1800s, this region was known for the production of red wine, specifically grapes like Merenzao, which are rare to find today. Escalada Do Sil is a blend of Merenzao, Mencía and Garnacha Tintorera. Merenzao is very aromatic, offering aromas of strawberries and violets. In Portugal, the Merenzao grape takes the name of Bastardo and in France, specifically in the Jura region, it takes the name of Trousseau. Mencía provides body and Garnacha Tintorera (also known as Alicante Bouschet) contributes dark pigmentation and acidity. The vineyards of this rare wine are very near the cliffs of the Sil River, hence the name Escalada Do Sil. Valdeorras is known for its altitude and mineral soils composed of slate and granite. The region is in between Bierzo and Ribeira Sacra, but its climate is very different. Its higher elevation brings cooler nights and mornings, producing grapes with uplifted tones and refined tannins. If you are a lover of Cru Beaujolais, we recommend that you try Escalada Do Sil. WHAT MAKES THIS WINE UNIQUE?: Old vine Merenzao from Valdeorras. Organically farmed. Only 425 cases produced. 100% Whole cluster. Aged in 500 liter French barrels for 15 months. RATING HISTORY: 2016 93JS; 2015 93View from the Cellar, 2015 90W&S, 2015 90JS; 2014 95JS GRAPE: 60% Merenzao, 30% Mencia, 10% Garnacha Tintorera.

  • Analysis of Some Metals in Wine by Means of Capillary Electrophoresis
    Analusis, 2000, 28, 432-437 © EDP Sciences, Wiley-VCH 2000 Analysis of some metals in wine by means of capillary electrophoresis. Application to the differentiation of Ribeira Sacra Spanish red wines M. Núñez, R.M. Peña, C. Herrero and S. García-Martín* Departamento de Química Analítica, Nutrición y Bromatología, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, Avda. Alfonso X El Sabio s/n, 27002 Lugo, Spain Abstract. The content of some metals (Na, K, Ca, Mg, Mn and Li) in a variety of red wines produced in different geographi- cal zones of Galicia was determined in a single analysis by capillary electrophoresis. Data were processed using multivariate supervised and non-supervised chemometric techniques involving cluster analysis, principal component analysis (PCA), linear dis- criminant analysis (LDA), K nearest neighbours (KNN) and soft independent modelling of class analogy (SIMCA). The results obtained have allowed for the categorisation of wine samples according to their origin; the wines with Ribeira Sacra Certified Brand of Origin (CBO) can be differentiated from the wines of two other CBO from Galicia: Ribeiro and Valdeorras. The latter two types of wine are made with the same or similar grape varieties; hence, due to their similar organoleptic properties they are possible substitutes for the falsification of Ribeira Sacra wines.
