Bodegas Boado Chaves S L

I just finished up a blog post about how much I love the award winning wine from here:

Bodegas Boado Chaves is a family winery with ten hectares of Albariño vineyards in the hills outside the quaint town of Cambados. With a Non Multa, Sed Multum (not many but much) approach to business, the winery is a small producer of O Casal, an Albariño under the Rias Baixas Demonination of Origin. Honestly, I’m happy to plug this refreshingly light wine.
The glassfuls of the 2009 vintage were the best vino I drank during the week. Unfortunately, O Casal isn’t available in the UK (yet). But owner Jose Angel Boado Chaves is a super gracious dude who’d be happy to show folks around and a tasting tour at his 18^th century manor house wouldn’t be too shabby a way to spend a day.
If you’re heading to Galicia (which is certainly a good idea if you love white wine, seafood and stunning coastal scenery), then keep a lookout for O Casal. Or, better yet, get in touch with Jose and see if he’ll show you around his place.
