Estrella Galicia
Freshly made and unpasteurized, arrives directly from our wineries to the point of sale. The absence of pasteurization requires that its transport be carried out cold by means of a network of specialized vehicles and its own personnel. In the breweries, the characteristic tanks maintain their refrigeration and the same carbonic levels with which it comes out of the cellars of our factory. These particular characteristics give it its own sensory attributes that make it a different beer.
Black Coupage
“Only someone with a different and transgressive personality would dare to make their own interpretation of the Coupage technique. From the mix of 4 select roasted malts and 2 hops (Nugget and Sladek), a different lager is produced, black, with an intense flavour... a unique beer.
Free, nonconformist, rebellious... the black sheep of the family. This is 1906 Black Coupage.
Gluten-free Estrella Galicia
Hijos de Rivera's new gluten-free beer has the “barred spike” distinctive, which certifies that the product is authorized by the FACE (Federation of Celiac Associations of Spain).
This bright golden beer is obtained through the application of an enzyme that breaks the chain of some proteins during the production process, including gluten.
Estrella Galacia
Bright golden beer that starts from a selection of especially bitter malts and hops and its cooking, fermentation and maturation process takes place over more than 20 days. This gives this beer a pleasant and premium flavour.
Wine
Petit Pittacum 2019
Bierzo Petit Pittacum, 100% Mencia, natural yeast, old fashioned wine making, Rioja Joven alternative. The winery is located in Arganza, a town of longstanding vine-growing and wine-making heritage, nestled in the beautifully hilly landscape of the Bierzo region. Bierzo, made with the Mencia grape, is sourced from 100 year-old vineyards, located on poor slate soils which carefully force the process of ripening. Organic fertilisers are used and green practices are employed throughout the vineyard to ensure the health of the vines. The wines of Pittacum are fermented with the wild yeast and very little intervention is employed save for a little pumping over over the juice and then some sulphur at bottling. The Petit Pittacum is the baby of the wines from the younger vines. It is fresh and vibrant but with plenty about it, intense colour, elegant nose, red fruit. Fluid and juicy in the mouth. Hidden wood notes. A lovely alternative to a Joven Rioja.
Aster Crianza 2016
An exciting Ribera del Duero.
It faithfully reflects all the emotion of its land, with a nuanced strength and intensity capable of captivating those who yearn for that difficult balance between power and refinement. Made with Tinta del País from the Burgos parcels of Anguix, where the Áster winery is located, it is aged for 22 months in French oak barrels, ideal to enhance the typical characteristics of this region.
80% of the wine underwent malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels of several years, performing weekly battonages for two months. The aging took place for 22 months in new French oak barrels (70%) and the rest in French oak from two wines.
Pioneer Albariño
This wine has an intense and full nose, with a mark of varietal character. Moderate on acidity on the palate, fresh while at the same time maintaining its aromatic complexity. Notes of pears, peaches and citruses are present all around. Its light bodied and dry. Long finish with hints of minerals in the end.
Viña Costeira
Viña Costeira is a balanced blend of the varieties Treixadura, Torrontés, Loureira—indigenous grapes of Ribeiro. The grapes come from the best slopes (costeiras) that the rivers Miño and Avia form surrounding the medieval village of Ribadavia. After a gentle pressing, the grape juice undergoes a traditional fermentation, with each variety fermented separately in stainless steel vats at controlled temperatures under 18ºC to preserve the delicate primary aromas of each varietal. Once fermentation finishes, we make selective ageing on the lees. Finally, the wines are blended to achieve the perfect balance of the different varieties before they are cold-stabilized and bottled.
Red Vintage
'1906 Red Vintage. La Colorada' is an intense and balanced beer, characterized by its aroma of toasted malt and creamy and compact foam with fine bubbles. It has a marked bitter finish that balances its high alcohol content (8.0% alc.) That makes the whole pleasant to drink at any time.
