DO Rias BaixasAlbarinoFounded 2001Costa familyWinemaker Sonia CostaVilanova de Arousa, Val do Salnes

Four-generation Vilanova de Arousa estate whose vineyards sit zero metres from the Ria de Arousa. Salnes Albarino at its most maritime; the family released its first commercial vintage in 2001.

Tip: Lagar de Costa's tasting room overlooks the Ria de Arousa with vineyards 200 metres from the cellar. Visit on the same trip as the Cambados Pazo de Fefinanes for a coastal Salnes contrast.

Sonia and Manuel Costa's Lagar da Costa Albarino Natural is the family bodega's first natural-wine bottling, fermented spontaneously with wild yeasts and bottled unfined, unfiltered and sulphite-free.

Tip: The Lagar da Costa Natural is the rare zero-additive Albarino from a serious family producer; production volumes are small.
