Rías Baixas, Galicia, Spain
Straw yellow with stone fruits, citrus and slight floral notes. On the palate apple and apricot flavors with vivid acidity, good balance, not overly complex. Medium finish ending with an herb and mineral character. Refreshing. Tasting Sample.

Jul 23rd, 2018This pale yellow wine has an interesting nose full of lemon, peaches and a lanolin note. A bit of earth peeks out amid the smell of white flowers. The mouth is rather full, yet the acidity is fresh and zingy. Lemony minerals dominate the palate and leave me craving a calamari and scungilli salad.

Solid balanced acidity and good mouth feel. Delicate dry straw on nose and palate. Moderately short finish. Very nice food wine.

May 16th, 2016Lemon, tangerine, peach and a reductive sulfur component in the nose. Fairly round and soft attack of light apricot and peach, decent acidity. Still not my style. I like a taut citrusy Albariño.
