High acidity, tart, apricot, citrus, dry finish. It is good, it just lacked anything that stood out. When it comes to Cali Albariño I prefer Ferdinand or Waterfall. Anyone else have a favorite I should try?

Really good example of this grape. Clean, refreshing, but not overpowered by garlic shrimp I'm snacking on.

Always a favorite weeknight drinker. Brine, acid, heftier mouthfeel- easy to pair with anything.

Golden straw color, medium+ viscosity. Nose sees golden apples, brine, flowers. Palette sees medium+ acid, brine, iodine, white flowers, honeysuckle. Sits heavy in the mouth. Delightful wine- paired exceedingly well with rotisserie chicken!

Pale yellow on the eye, day bright, medium viscosity. Nose sees some brine, white flowers, white, underripe stone fruits (apricots, peaches), some slate. Palette sees tart lemon, more brine, some funky/bitter vegetal notes, medium+ acid, long finish.
