Straw yellow with aromas of tropical and stone fruits and floral notes. On the palate flavors of crisp pears, peaches and some citrus with an underlying touch of sweetness and some mineral tones. Good length on the finish a little crispier than some other Albariño’s. Consistent with ‘18 I tried!

Not as aromatic as I expected. Nice acidity and body though.

Nice and fruity; crisp. Light straw. Smelled of peaches, pears, apricots, vanilla. Mellow and smooth; good acidity; low tannins; cantaloupe, sweet apples, lots of fruit but not sweet; shortish finish.

Fresh, ripe fruits. Melon, cantaloupe, asian pears and that bit of pepper that defines the best albarinos are all present here. You want a great albarino? You pick this up.

A delicious Albariño from Rias Baixas, Spain! Bursting with Lemon zest, Pineapple and Granny Smith Green Apples. A slightly crisp acidity level but very smooth and balanced with a medium finish.
