August 24, 2014 - After I visited Galicia 15y ago i chased all Albarino wines I could get here in the Netherlands which weren't that many and always started at 10 euro, a normal price for a low yield grape. I was therefore surprised to find last year two Albarinos in the supermarket for a much lower price,this one in Albert Heijn, one in Lidl. This one has indeed a too bitter aftertaste, described as 'grapefruit' on the label. The one from Lidle is better.

June 30, 2014 - Has improved even further, with ripe apple and pear fruit balanced by cool freshness and minerality, just a slight hint of bitters from the skins. Not complex but a nice enough drink by now.

June 11, 2014 - Monthly Tasting Group HWS #090; Albariño / Rias Baixas (By IL): A bit green bouquet with grasses and citrus. On the palate green apple, citrus, pineapple, a touch of sweetness and some bitterness. Correct wine, but nothing special.

February 4, 2014 - Compared with six months ago there is more apple and pear fruit; the bitters are still present but they don't stick out as much. Altogether more pleasant with a little more bottle age.

July 25, 2013 - Nicely floral nose, fresh, but with rather dominant and unattractive bitters from the skins. Not flawed but not very well made either.
