9/30/2023 - cobystilp wrote: 91 pointsWhat an amazing wine. I picked up this wine in Chile and have never seen it in the United States. I had it in the cellar for about 5 years before opening. It opened bright and fresh and didn't deteriorate over a week. I wonder how long it could be cellered? The wine had lots of bright flower notes and soft tenants. I would buy this again if I ever saw it. |

6/2/2023 - cobystilp Likes this wine: 90 pointsFantastic wine! I brought this back from Chile and really enjoyed having it in my cellar. It is like a Cabernet Sauvignon with a bunch of violets mixed in. I wish we did more carmenere in the United States. |

4/25/2023 - cobystilp wrote: 92 pointsI bought this at the suggestion of the manager of Twin Liquors store #3 who said it is his favorite white wine. It's expensive for an everyday white but such a great wine. If you see this pick it up as it is a great representation of what an Albarino can be. |
