Pale golden color. Aromatic nose of citrus, white peach, honeysuckle, crushed powdery rocks. Very nice. Similar flavors on the palate with a mix of stone and citrus fruits. High acidity balances out ripe fruit. Very nice bottle of albarino and paired well with assorted sushi.

Lovely. Drunk with a variety of seafood and fish dishes this was consistently enjoyable. As Albamar always seems to be. In the right hands Albarinho seems to have both enough weight and acid/freshness to match well with many dishes. Worth buying in quantity for the pleasure it gives but also its wide utility at the table.
Consistent notes with several bottles drunk in August 2022. Justifies why Rias Baixas has risen in popularity recently. Simply lovely. Minerality/Fiesty acid/ Saline/ Enough weight to give texture/ Punchy finish.What is there not to like ?
