Description

"It's elegantly lifted on the nose showing apricot, golden apple, oatmeal and dried flower characters, followed by a nicely textured mouthfeel displaying juicy fruit flavours together with savoury nuances, finishing lingering and pleasingly dry" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2020

At bottling the wine was very pale with light yellow/green tints. With time we expect that it will develop some pale gold hints. Pure and fresh, with hints of citrus zest and peach. Medium bodied and zesty. This wine has a brilliant acid line and this gives the palate real length and vigour. Thus far, our Albariños have been aging more slowly than we expected. The wine is delightful in its youth, but may well age beautifully into the medium term.

Food Pairing: Perfect with seafood, chicken and paella.
