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.

Robe pale. Nez vif sur les agrumes. Manque de corps, vin amer avec une bonne acidité. Vin sans intérêt et avec peu à offrir, même à ce prix.

Fresh, mineral, good acidity. Stony fruits and white flowers. Got a good bite, and refreshing finish. Very good food wine.

White flower and freshness on the nose. Candied fruit on the palate with a hint of green bitterness on the palate.
