Faustino Rivero Ulecia Albariño 2024

Faustino Rivero Ulecia Albariño is a white wine produced in the Rías Baixas Denominación de Origen (D.O.) region of Galicia, northwestern Spain. The brand's history dates back to 1899 when Olegario Rivero founded his first winery in Arnedo, La Rioja. Over five generations, the Rivero family expanded their operations from Rioja into other prominent Spanish wine regions, including Galicia, where this specific Albariño is cultivated.

Today, the brand is the flagship label of the Hacienda y Viñedos Marqués del Atrio group. While the family remains deeply involved, the company significantly expanded its global reach in 2015 through a strategic partnership with the Changyu Pioneer Wine Company, China's largest and oldest winery. This partnership helped transform the group into one of Spain's leading wine exporters.

The 2024 vintage continues the tradition of the region, utilizing the local Albariño grape variety to produce a wine characterized by its citrus notes, floral aromas, and crisp acidity, reflecting the cool Atlantic climate of its origin.
