The funky label caught my eye. I had no idea what all of that Spanish meant. I just knew that it's a white, and that I was in the mood for an adventure. I'm so glad I took a gamble with this one. It may be a new fave.

Nice crushed gravel on the nose. Slightly antiseptic note on finish. Plenty of acid.

Beautiful fresh albariño with not too much acidity, very light fruity flavors, kind of apple I think. Balances well, with a sharp finish at the end. Really nice style that I like.

Nice wine, crisp and dry. Soft pale yellow, salty citrus on the nose. Nice acidity on the finale.
