Leirana Rias Baixas Albarino
Young fresh and almost Sauvignon Blanc like with kitty urine and boxwood. Chunky acidity but you can feel the depth and substance behind it. A testdrive, the remaining sixer can wait till summer. — 6 months ago

O Con Viño de Encostas Albariño
Outstanding Albariño by Xosé Luis Sebio (winemaker at Coto de Gomariz). From old vines in Aios (Sanxenxo) in the Salnes subzone of Rías Baixas. Clean, precise nose with aromas of citrus, minerals, sea breeze. Very refreshing, elegant on the palate. Citrus, zesty acidity. Long, saline finish. Very very good — 4 years ago
