This was a replacement bottle for a bottle of corked Las Brisas. The first taste was that of bracing acidity followed by the citrus and apple tastes. A perfect match for steamed ship with typical sauces or some plump scallops seared in butter. This is a very different sensation from the Las Brisas pairing, however. A good value but I am reminded that Albarinos are best when drinking youngest availalbe (DYA). From my own taste I agree with Tanzer's point rating on this wine.

Nice. Less acidic than Las Brisas. Will get more.
