What to Expect

Albariño is a grape indigenous to the border region that separates Spain from Portugal, where the grape is know as Alvarino. It produces a medium to light-bodied white wine that is rich with peach and citrus fruits while the aromas tend to the floral and slightly nutty end of the spectrum. The wines have bright acidity and an easy-drinking quality that has propelled them to new heights of popularity.

Winemakers Notes

Varietal Notes: The Albariño grape makes an aromatic, fruity, dry white wine.

Albarino is an aromatic white wine. It is straw-gold in color with a green tinge. Our 2007 Albarino exhibits its distinctive varietal character with delicate aromas of cantaloupe, pineapple and apricot. It is medium bodied in the mouth with a pleasing tropical lushness followed by a lingering finish. This Albarino shows excellent balance with its vivid, crisp acidity making it a wonderful accompaniment to seafood.
