When I saw Albariño I thought Spain or Portugal but this is from Uruguay. 95 points at the Decanter 2017 World Wine Awards. Very pale lemon in colour. Again appley flavours with a trace of bitterness - extended skin contact? Wouldn’t give it 95 but a good refreshing well made white.

Citrus on the nose. Medium body. Tastes like an oaked Chardonnay with hints of honey. The wine finishes with a hint of peaches and lime.

Aug 15th, 2018I get the mineral notes and taste for sure. Deep in the bottom of the glass I smell grass or maybe the leafy tops of fruit. It’s an enjoyable white although I can’t quite put my finger on why.

Aug 13th, 2018Tropical island aromas. Smells like a tropical fruit farm on a Caribbean island. Lush, slightly creamy texture mouth feel. Pineapple, tropical fruits, and a nice minerality.
