Bodegas Castro Martin stands proudly as a family business still managed on a day-to-day basis by the descendants of its original founder. The Martin-Serantes family have been making wine for generations, albeit initially on a comparatively small scale, supplying mainly friends, family and a few local bars. Over time, Domingo Martin became very frustrated with the variation in quality of many of the local albariños (much of which could be attributed to the old-fashioned wine making techniques), and so decided to build something a little more state-of-the-art. His new, much larger cellar was constructed in 1981, most significantly, a full six years before the D.O. of Rias Baixas itself was actually created.
FEATURED WINES
SOBRE LIAS ~ EN RAMA
Our Family Estate wine is made from 100% Albariño grapes, selected from our very best vineyards sites and with vines that have an average age of around 50 years. The delicate albariño grape gives this wine its typical aromatic intensity, whilst the granite and quartz subsoils of our home vineyards add a mineral backbone and tight structure, giving the wine great finesse and excellent balance.

A2O ‘SOBRE LIAS’
Made from 100% albariño grapes from the Salnés Valley – a combination of fruit collected from our own vineyards, and fruit purchased from some of the very best local growers (many have been supplying our bodega for up to 30 years). The vines used for making this wine have an average age of between 20 and 40 years, and produce a fruity, well-rounded wine that serves as the perfect introduction to albariño.
