Yellow straw color. Aromas and flavors of candied white flowers, fruity pebbles, canned peaches, jack fruit, papaya, and orange marmalade with a lean, tart, bone-dry light-to-medium body and a tingling, medium-long finish with suggestions of sour patch kids and fruit cup cocktail with no oak flavor. Bright and tropical on the nose and palate, this Albarino would make a nice white summer sangria.

About
Albarino
Albariño is a white grape grown in Portugal and Spain (Rias Baixas in north west Spain, near the border with Portugal, is a famous Albariño zone).

The wines are aromatic, aged only in steel and feature exotic aromatics of honeysuckle, peach, melon and orange blossom. Medium-bodied, the wines are dry or off-dry and have very good natural acidity. They are meant to be enjoyed young (within the first year or two after the vintage) and are ideal with shellfish (especially crayfish) and most seafood.
