Boordy Vineyards
South Mountain Vineyard Albariño
The 2016 vintage of this wine is something completely different. If nothing else, I can't remember a Boordy white wine tipping the scales at 14% ABV. This wine is lush and juicy on the notes with big aromas of peach, nectarine and tangerine. The is juicy but completely dry on the palate with amazing acidity. The peach and nectarine flavors really come through followed by that zesty acidity and just a touch of dried, bitter herbs to balance out the big fruit. The finish is long and dry with lots of acidity and a nice, juicy punch. This is really wine really shows a different side of Boordy, that they're trying new and different things. Really excellent.
