Very clean and clear, and even though it’s a 2009 it is still holding onto its core freshness and character. White fruits and flower blossoms work the nose, and the palate is now fully mature, elegant and smooth. Flavors of peach, melon and kiwi are clean and tasty. Albariño at its best.

This is Albariño in fine form. The nose is succulent and marble-smooth, with pure citrus and melon aromas. The palate is lively but refined, with exuberant citrus flavors that come on strong but with proper restraint. Long and ripe on the finish, which only adds to the experience. Drink now.

Some wax on the nose along with a touch of pollen; less than fruity. The wine remains on the sharp, tangy side in the mouth, where lemon, lime and grapefruit flavors are predominant. Crisp on the finish, what some might call short and tart. Imported by Classical Wines.

A solid Albariño and an improvement over the previous vintage. Vanilla and apple aromas are standard and good, while the palate is plump, fresh, melony and peachy, with softness but no flab. Drink this wine right away (summer sipping) because it’s not going to make it until 2012.

Very nice apple blossom and lightly stony aromas greet you, and the apple and apricot flavors are juicy and ripe. This is an all-fruit wine with just enough acidity and minerality to keep it in shape. Finishes with citrus and melon. Drink now.

Harder and more oily on the nose than desired, with white-fruit aromas that turn sharp. The palate has ample wetness and acidity, but the flavors are somewhat bitter, nutty and oily. It’s also mildly bitter on the finish. Something’s not quite right here, yet it doesn’t seem flawed.

Impeccably clean, with light tropical fruit gracing the bouquet. A wine that’s better than the sum of its parts; the palate is lemony fresh and satisfying, while the overall impression is that of elegance and simplicity. Perfectly good but not overly flavorful.
