  April 5, 2023 - They try and keep everything seperate. So here they wan to focus on the coast. ANd how they do it is to get the palate, and the soil structure being all granite, and there is allot of salt and minerality to it as well. And there is lots of salt and sea brine to it. Bright and fresh.

  March 30, 2022 - Respectfully to other reviewers that say “ one of the best wines iv’e ever had” I can only consider lack of experience with wine or there was a mixup in the wine reviewed. After seeing the description “ simple Albariño “ but at $12, I thought to give it a try. I’m very experience with this varietal and it when done well ( see my other reviews) it is one of my favorite whites especially with food. This wine was a clear disappointment. Mostly a muted aromas of lime ,
  lemon & grapefruit, very light in body, medium acid , and really non descript fruit flavors. The taste is non eventful and not anything I would serve my guests. On the palette the wine is simple, short finish, acidic & wet… nothing to get excited about, I obviously would not repurchase at any price. The rating system I use is based on the merits of the wine not the QPR. If the wine is an excellent value, I have been known to throw a few points up, but explain that in the review. For fellow trackers I respectfully go beyond the score on top of the page, and read the reviews for merit and validity.

  December 1, 2021 - A very enjoyable albeit simple Galician Albarino.
  Enjoyable nose of hyacinth, lemon/lime oil. Good citrus fruit definition on the palate. Great QPR for a weekday quaffer for shellfish.
  Would repurchase at $16.
