Nose - medium minus. You need to pull it out. Green and red apple. Ripe and tart. Freshness.
Palate - medium plus pop on palate. Medium plus acidity, dry, alcohol is well integrated. Minerality. A bit of wet grass. Herbaceous qualities. Fruit would be apples. Picking up a slight bitterness on finish. The finish is sour and bitter. It's a 2013, still feels alive on palate but showing some maturation in flavors. As compared to some other olde Albariños I've had, no oxidative notes. A fuller flavored white that can hold up to spicier meal. Had a southwestern chix and veg dish and it worked. Price seems a bit high to me.

This bottle had the same intoxicating profile as Raul Perez's flagship albariño, Sketch. Great value and showing really well 7 years on.

Beau blanc bien glycériné avec une acidité moyenne à vive et un ensemble harmonieux.
