Limited Release
Albariño (Spain)
Winexpert Reserve
June 2022
- Our limited release Albariño has a fruity palate which is rich with orchard fruit flavours, vibrant grapefruit and lime, complemented with subtle floral undertones. Fresh and zesty with mouth-watering acidity and light salinity on the finish.
- Albariño is native to Galicia in northwest Spain where it thrives in the cool, wet maritime climate. The nearby Atlantic Ocean imparts a signature saline note. One of the key white wine grapes of the Iberian Peninsula, it is prized for its natural palate-cleansing acidity, coastal brine and expressive fruit flavours. Albariño’s popularity outside of Spain continues to grow as wine drinkers discover its freshness and versatility. The grape is now gaining ground in coastal vineyards across California, Oregon and New Zealand. Expect to see a lot more from Albariño.
- The perfect wine that pairs well with anything seafood. Try it with grilled calamari, shrimp risotto or fish tacos. It also pairs with light meats, grilled vegetables, tapas or a creamy Caesar salad. Be sure to serve it chilled.
