* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Fillaboa ranks among the most consistent high-quality producers of Albariño. This vintage delivers fresh lemon, melon and apple aromas. The palate is pointed but with some leesy richness and flavors of lemon, lime and stones. Finishes in mouthwatering style, with pineapple essence as the final act.

This is what Albariño is all about! The nose issues a salinic combo of salt water and sea shells along with green banana and melon, while the palate is jumpy, fresh, balanced and intriguing. The flavors of just-ripe bananas and Meyer lemon are true, while the mouthfeel is both smooth and refreshing. Get after this one as soon as you can.

Smells waxy, as if it has slipped past its prime. The palate still sports a beam of bright acidity but there isn’t much body or lees to accompany the richness, so the volume is low as a whole. Tastes good, but mostly like citrus and fresh fruit juice.

Floral and mildly leesy, with pungent aromas of green apple, citrus and honey. For anyone looking for steely, pure Albariño, the single-vineyard Fillaboa Monte Alto is the ticket. The fruit is crisp and zesty, the acidity just right. And the finish runs a mile long.
