March 3, 2021 - My first ever taste of an Albilla wine and likely the first wine tried from Manchuela. Certainly different - dry with linseed (?) oil bitterness and salty edges. Lightens up a touch on the finish. Not a lot of obvious fruit and very much in the Euro old school mould. Interesting for sure but somewhat fully priced at A$35.

June 24, 2020 - Un año más tarde vuelve a pasar por mis manos esta interesante albillo, de color amarillo y nariz de corte maduro, con fruta con hueso en sazón, por momentos confitada, algún toque de vainilla y tomas cítricas. En boca tiene buen ataque cierta untuosidad, bastante frescura, reaparece el carácter avainillado, con toques de mantequilla fresca, bastante largo y bien definido.

And a highly unusual variety, Albilla.1 person found this helpful Comment -

November 29, 2019 - Black Friday (Alicante - España): From a new bottle. Even without standing out for anything, it is more elegant in the nose than in the mouth. Aniseed and as cologne water. The horror. Aqueous and sugary texture. For Kurtz. Anotaré bull returned to pens.
De una botella nueva. Aún sin destacar por nada es más elegante en nariz que en boca. Anisado y como agua de colonia. El horror. Textura acuosa y azucarada. Para kurtz. Devuelto a corrales.1 person found this helpful Comment -

June 12, 2019 - Pajizo con destellos dorados. Nariz delicada, floral, con matices minerales, algo de manzana verde... En boca tiene buen ataque, algo de vainilla, buenos amargos, muy buena acidez, sutil salinidad, largo y bien perfilado.
