Originating from Galicia - Albarino is lively like the Spanish people! Crisp acidity, pithy citrus and hints of oyster shell create a provocative mouth and mind filling experience.

Cam Douglas - 93/100, Excellent

Delicious, taut, youthful and dry. A wine that touches the palate with fruit and power. Flavours of peaches and sweet citrus, apple and lemon, some white flowers and moments of cape gooseberry.

The acidity is significant and along with a fine saline touch ensures this wine will age well, the fruit power is also noteworthy and will also stand the test of time.

A dry wine on the finish and while it is so youthful still needs food to tame it just a little (a squeeze of lemon juice on fish). Well made, lengthy and ready to drink from late 2024 through 2029.

We highly recommend our partner in Europe, Neuseeland Weinboutique. They have a wide range of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
