This bottle is flawed. Color is dark brown and it tastes like sherry. Most of the distinguishing features are gone. Too bad. Not sure if it was a bad bottle or if I aged it too long, but my 2013 felt young at 7 years in.

Exotic bouquet profile w. gripping acidity in the back. The body is rather light but feels more pronounced due to alc. and fruit - mainly pineapple - w. some bubble gum. Mid range finish. Wouldn't call it a keeper.

A superb and vibrant Albariño - this is hitting on all cylinders right now. Heaps of lemon and lime fruit, but not austere and acidic...what this reminds me of is a great grosses gewachs but it’s really it’s own thing. I’ve had a lot of good Albariño but this is really special.

Lovely now. Compact and very graceful. Acidic structure frames white fruits and a slight salinity.

Served blind - guessed Chardonnay from Sicily. Nice example of the minerality of Albarino. Drink.
