Lychee tropical nose. Crisp, acidic, slightly salty with phenolic kick. Nice one.

Very quaffable. This goes down very easy. Very very easy. Great with appetizers. Or alone. Tons of acids with lemon lime, tons of citrus. Everything you want from a bottle of Albariño

Pristine fruit, racy acidity, and briny minerality. Lemon verbena, yellow peaches, and a distinct creaminess. Stunning.

This wine is a riper Albariño, with dominant flavors of melon and stone fruits. However, it still demonstrates lemony acidity and salty minerality. It's crisp, yet has a more substantial mouthfeel due to a small percentage of the wine being fermented in French barrels and aged on lees. It's the duality of warmer climate/citrus fruits and crispness/mouthfeel that make this wine interesting. ¡Feliz día de Albariño! (only $14-$18/bottle, widely distributed).
