This is the estate blend of Guímaro’s soils in the Amandi zone, this time with a little oak ageing. Summing six hectares, it’s effectively a field blend, about 85% old vine Mencía co-picked with Merenzao, Mouratón, Brancellao, Caiño, Sousón, and Alicante Bouschet. Like the Joven, it sums slate, granite, quartz and sand.

Hand-picked fruit (40% whole bunches) spontaneously ferments in open old oak vats for 40 days. Half the wine spends seven months in old French oak vats followed by four months in old barricas, the other half swaps vessels and ageing ratios. Bottled unfiltered, unfined. Camiño is the Galego variant of Camino in Castellano – its name is thus ‘The Royal Way’.
