Best in show as far as I'm concerned. White peach, high acidity, wet stone.

Delicious Texas Albariño with loads of bright banana and green fruit notes and good clean acid finish.

Was highly skeptical of trying a cheap Texas wine, but was pleasantly surprised. Albariño is one of my favorite white grape varietals, and after learning that Spanish and Portuguese grapes do particularly well in the Texas climate thought I’d give it a shot. Crisp, very refreshing, Happy 4th!

Very crisp and refreshing! Fresh white grapes on the nose, green apple finish, balanced acidity, 13.2% ABV works great. Excellent for summer days.

Like it a lot. Not sure it's value against similar wines from Spain.
