One of three producers making Albarino in Sonoma County. Apple and light citrus. Refreshing and low acid - really pleasant.

2014 @Marimarestate Marimar 'Don Miguel Vineyard' #Albariño #RussianRiver. Classic Albariño aromas--white flower, banana, yellow Apple plus slight ripe pineapple with hints of ginger spice. Medium-bodied but bitter on finish. Needs more sur-lie aging. #wine #sommelier #sommlife

Oohh. nice. Key lime and minerality, with floral notes and crisp peach with bright acidity. The finish is crisp. This would be an awesome Sushi pairing.

The only better California Albariño I've had is the Kongsgaard.

This is one of my favorite wines from this producer. Such great, smooth texture with rich flavor profile balanced out with medium acid.

Really enjoyed this one. Little bit of acidic but an easy drinker. Some saline. Classic style i would expect with an albarino

We both really enjoyed this albarino. Less stone fruit than normal and almost an oaky undertone. Went well with chicken salads.

Would buy again!
