Just as before, the nose is quite interesting, a mix of citrus fruits and salt stone with just a hint of basil. The palate is jsut as complex with green apples, basil, loads of minerality and really crisp acid on the finish. This is really an astounding wine!

Must drink now. Still good but lost a bit of its crisp.

Tart! Piercing grapefruit flavour and acidity...crisp and refreshing but not overly complex.

Not a wine to ponder too much. Summer wine, light, acidic, crisp. Drank as an aperitif, and enjoyed it...though I'll move on.

Nose of salty sea air and stone. Slight smell of citrus/lemon.
Very dry on the palate and tart lemon with grapefruit eventually coming through.
Not a lot of words to describe this wine, but I really enjoyed it. I like very dry/crisp white wines and that's what you get with this Albarino.
