2020 vintage. Attractive nose with flowers, peach, prunes and stoney minerality. Bright fruit, with crisp acidity balancing the round mouthfeel. Very good saline length. Delicious.

Fresh and crisp with acidity, light floral notes of apple blossom and fruity peach and lime.

Perfect Albariño. Eating local Mallorcan seafood cooked a la plancha at a decades old restaurant recommended by Ferran Adrià.

83/100 White appetizer time.
Smells of empty glass at first but with effort and time citrus and grapefruit start to arrive. It's clean, crisp to start without being sharp which I love about Albariño. Later mellowing and providing very smooth leisurely drift across the palate.
Well balanced white for me, quiet a decent finish.
Enjoyed!

All round disappointing. Light nose, green apple, vegetal, white flower. Dry, tart high acidity, simple style with m- body, shortish length with similar tasting to palate to nose, with more citric notes. Poor-acceptable.
