Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\nA scented and mineral Albarino with pretty nectarines, lemon grass and sea salt. The medium-bodied palate is bone-dry, super-fresh and sleek with a bright, mouthwatering finish. Delicious.\r\nAbout\r\nGalicia's legendary Albari\u00f1o grape until the late 1980s remained just that--a legend. Often thought to be distant relative, perhaps even an immediate ancestor of the Riesling, its high quality and extreme scarcity assured its perennial position as Spain's (and one of Europe's) most expensive wine grapes. The high cost tempted many to stretch production through overproduction and blending resulting in frequent disappointment on the part of the adventurous taster. Authentic examples were produced in tiny, unstable lots which never made it outside the region. In 1988 the D.O. R\u00edas Baixas was established as part of an ongoing movement to recuperate and assure authenticity. Refocusing attention on a superior microclimate and fuller style, Morgad\u00edo (\ |
