Pale lemon color with stone, citrus and tropical fruit aromas and herb floral scents. On the palate flavors of apples, grapefruit and pear with lemon citrus and chalky notes. Good balance with pleasant lively acidity, medium+ finish ending crisp with mineral, citrus, floral and wet stone nuances.

Light pale yellow with a lively swirl; spicy flowery nose with moderate levels of fruit; salivation-inducing acidity, reddish citrus and peach flavors, and a medium-long finish. Fresh but unexceptional.

Very pleasant Albariño. Not as complex as some but a lovely balanced wine.

All the right fruit aromas---orange peel, peach, grapefruit,, etc. but lower intensity than usual. Yeasty and slightly phenolic.

Tart apple and lemon on the nose with some really lovely minerality and acidity on the palate. Summer wine done right.
