Atalier Rías Baixas Albariño
Can Albariño get much better? I don’t think so. Lime skin, orange rind, mineral, sourdough. Look out y’all. This can’t stay affordable for long.

May 1st, 2022This was our white wine selection for dinner at Corvino Supper Club. Popped and poured, no formal notes due to the setting but I recall the distinct kiwi fruit note with some melon and lemon. The wine was like an ocean breeze. Zippy with an abundance of minerals. Killer with the seafood on the table and paired well with everything at the table.

Mar 14th, 2021Pure electricity! Although a bit more jagged, this Albariño has concentration that trends toward Sketch. Acid heads should appreciate the cut that this citrus bomb asserts with heaps of lemon, lime zest, grapefruit and golden melon. There’s an underlying component of wet stone and white flower aromas that compliment the briny, sea salt subtleties on the nose and palate...hallmarks of benchmark Albariños. This wine screams for a bowl of mussels, charred octopus and an ocean breeze. Good stuff.
