Silice Viticultores, Silice Blanco, Ribeira Sacra, Galicia, Spain

From Galacia this Ribeira Sacra is a blend of Albarino, Godello and Treixadura. Perfect with seafood.

Silice Viticultores is made up of three friends, one of them Fredi Torres, with the idea to create wines like those who came before us, meaning as minimal and low intervention as possible.

Fredi was born in Galicia but grew up in Switzerland where he was a  musician and DJ - he trained at the famous SAE School in Zurich. He was first introduced to wine by a girlfriend in Switzerland, and his first winemaking internship was with Henri Chollet in the vineyards of Lavaux.

FTV (Fredi Torres Viticultor) is involved in many different projects, not just wine but also festivals, but always with the aim of respecting the people, landscape and history of each place. Twenty years ago, when he first started making wine in Spain, Fredi was one of the first to practice biodynamic farming and to pick relatively early. Now others are following his lead but Fredi always seems to stay a little ahead of the pack.
