Silly label and oddly shaped bottle will certainly ensnare some but not me. Not Albariño-y enough for me and certainly not worth the price.

Not what I want when I go for Albariño but tasty none the less. A little fatty on the palate. Fun bottle though.

Slightly oxidative, super leesy, and quite fun!

Totally enamored with this producer after tasting three of his wines. This has the chalky bite, clean white flowers and delicate blast of yellow fruit one expects, but in an oily textured base that's got presence, not weight. Very underpriced for what this is.

Golden straw color. Nice body weight. Honeyed pear, yellow apple, chalk and lemon. Little pop of alcohol but a solid little wine with some big acid.

2012 Vintage quite impressive. Mineral, dense with some salinity. Holding up very well.
