Pure stone fruit with green apples, nectarines and chalk on the nose, following through to a dry and crisp palate. A little light but quite drinkable with a saline undertone in the finish. Screw cap.
Winemaker
The uniqueness of this vineyard lies in its Southern orientation, assuring shelter from intense sunlight and direct exposure to the ocean breeze. This heightens the vibrant minerality of the varietal.
Straw gold in colour, this Albarino is fresh and vibrant and presents tropical fruits with subtle oral notes in the nose. In the mouth, it expresses a round and fresh body, with saline and mineral rich undertones, which make it a wine with a marked sense of terroir.
