Tuesday, October 3, 2023 - Retail $17. Under screw cap. Although there is not a ton of Albariño grown in this country, it is becoming more prevalent. The Central Coast seems to be the epicenter, with the Edna Valley leading the way. Light to medium straw in color with tropical notes predominant. The palate is quite tart, perhaps on the verge of "exceedingly" so with touches of fruit and minerality. I rarely say this, but while this is certainly a nice wine, it might be too acidic for me. What is the pairing here? Perhaps a really fatty, but not overly flavorful cheese? Is that a thing?
