Infanticide aside- this little sucker rocked my world.
This wine had huge nectarine flavors, wild-ass acidity (in a good way), and notes of grapefruit and white flowers. Powerful and overwhelming--like being torn apart by a big cat- This was one of the best stickies I have had in a long time. This was served with an unknown, very blue cheese and it was a highlight of my night. I need to find another bottle and keep my hands off it.
This was my first Albalonga Varietal (which I believe is a cross of a couple crosses) , and it will not be my last.

This wine was a great match with Epoisses cheese. However, it was far too sweet to drink by itself, seemingly , even for a Tba.
