If you like wines from Spain that are subtly tart and sweet, then enjoy this wine at this price-point. It's too sweet for me but works quite nicely on the crisp of autumn during football season. 🌿🌾🍁🍂🏈

Like a slightly fresher Albariño. Apple, peach and light almond note. Light to medium bodied, gentle, lightly leesy creamy texture, peach, melon. Good n' easy

This wine was a great surprise, great value for the $13.99 price! A little tropical and earthiness on the nose, but on the palate it really came alive - crisp with a bit of effervescence, good acid and retaining the fruit flavor. Great with Indian food or any spicy food or shellfish.

Pale straw with aromas of stone and citrus fruits and gentle floral notes. On the palate fresh fruit, white peaches and pears with floral spice and balanced acidity. Medium savory finish with mineral tones on the ending. Nice value.

Limpidez alta, oro pajizo con toques verdosos, en nariz buena potencia, pomelo, notas cítricas, fruta de hueso y fondo salino. En boca muy joven entrada ligera, paso correcto y final amargo y algo corto.

Very fruity and mineral. Ripe peach, apple, pear and touch of citrus. More body than its cousins the Albariños, with lower acidity and higher content of alcohol. Gordellos are the next great find and their potential is just in its infancy. Amazing value.
