Community Tasting Note

failed wine merchant Does not like this wine:

Sunday, January 22, 2023 - Albariño Rectoral do Umia 2021
Rias Baixas
SPAIN
retail: 6 - 8 €

Nasty tasting and insipid, shrill white wine which has been awarded 90 points in a Decanter tasting. Despite the claim that 100% of the grapes are albariño, this in reality is only fit for cooking.
It's hard to believe that a wine made from the fresh and fragrant albariño grape can yield a wine as pathetic as this one. The company which makes this product probably buys most of the grapes from La Mancha in central Spain or Algeria, North Africa.
Avoid.
