Pale lemon-gold with green highlights. Aromas of lemon juice, lemon rind, with hints of rosemary and crushed clam shell. Unlike any Albariño from Spain that I've had in that the typical floral/honeysuckle/jasmine note is not there. Bone dry with lots of acid, lemon/lime flavors dominate. This reminds me more of a good Muscadet than Albariño, which is not a bad thing! Long, minerally finish. Needs raw oysters.
