  June 4, 2016 - 100% Albariño. In Galician, Viñabade means “Abbot’s Vineyard”. It’s a reference to the Cluny monks who are credited with bringing Albariño to Galicia in the 12th(ish) century. Medium yellow. Nose is lemon cream, minerals, fresh-cut grass and vanilla. The vanilla snuck up on me. Light bodied, very clean, with bonkers acidity, and flavors of citrus and seaspray. Takes on a sherry-like nose (honey and pepper) as it warms. Bonus point for the fantastic label.
