Paco & Lola Rías Baixas Albariño
Bright lemon color with stone and tropical fruit aromas and adding floral citrus scents. On the palate flavors of pear, apples and pineapple with lemon zest and hints of salinity. Well balanced with pleasant lively acidity, long finish ending with mineral, citrus and wet stone nuances. Very nice! Should improve over the next few years. Nice value.

May 9th, 2023Oh, Paco y Lola, how I have missed you. Moving from SF to PDX, I could not find you in any of the usual places and believed that, perhaps, Oregon didn’t permit you to be imported. But SURPRISE, here you are in rainbow Pride colors. You don’t quite live up to my memories (2020 wasn’t a good year for any of us) with a bit too much grapefruit pith, but still, you are lovely. Purchased at Zupans
