January 9, 2024 - Crisp, fresh and zingy, intense and minerally with citrus and lime fruit softened with a little cream. The finish had a decent length but was just a little heavy handed with the residual sugar. A popular choice. CHP 89 pts

December 16, 2023 - In my opinion this wine from 'Mr. Albarino' should go with food. I guess sardines from the grill would be pretty nice: the acidity from the wine would 'cut' the oily fish. On its own it is a bit bleak and thin, but at € 13 it is not in a bad QPR

November 12, 2023 - Fresh, acid forward, but after a short while more round and balanced. Yellow fruits, minerality and a good complement to our chosen dishes

October 6, 2023 - Peach and lime fruit infused with a lovely streak of acidity, enriched with a squirt of oil and a little honey to balance it out. Perhaps a little too much residual sugar on the finish but delicious nonetheless. CHP 88 pts
