SÁBALO
From 100% organic palomino fino vineyards, with years of organic certification and excellent care behind them. Sábalo is a wine that is born as it makes its way through the white clay albariza soils of Sanlúcar, with the influence of the sea, the marshes and the Guadalquivir River, leaving their marks on its DNA.

Sábalo is the fruit of our experience in wine-making, the shared work of farmers and the know-how of our wine expert. After the slow processes of fermentation, we have focused on showcasing all the virtues of our organic grapes to achieve an excellent wine of great finesse and delicacy. And without neglecting the spirit of Bodegas Barbadillo at any point.

VINEYARDS AND HARVEST
SÁBALO
The grapes come exclusively from two albariza vineyards, which have been managed under the organic farming system for more than 15 years.
The first is close to the sea in Sanlúcar, with vines that are more than 35 years old, and it has been organic for the last 17 years. The other vineyard is further inland, located on a hilltop overlooking the marshes between Sanlúcar and Trebujena.
This vineyard is more than 25 years old and has also been certified organic for more than 12 years. By using grapes from these two vineyards, we unite the maritime influence with that of the Guadalquivir River and the marshes.
