O Con Viño de Encostas Albariño

Outstanding Albariño by Xosé Luis Sebio (winemaker at Coto de Gomariz). From old vines in Aios (Sanxenxo) in the Salnes subzone of Rías Baixas. Clean, precise nose with aromas of citrus, minerals, sea breeze. Very refreshing, elegant on the palate. Citrus, zesty acidity. Long, saline finish. Very very good — 3 years ago

Do Ferreiro Albariño 2023

A nice Albariño, grapes from the Contado do Tea subzone and the Salnes subzone, aged on lees for about 9 months, pale lemon with aromas of citrus and tropical fruits. On the palate pronounced flavors of melon and lemon with hints of toasty notes from lees aging. Long finish, vivid acidity, ending with fruit and smoky character. Will age well. — a day ago

Do Ferreiro

Subzone Salnes Albariño 2021

Dazzling #albarino that’s the kind of hidden gem found deep in a wine list for a restaurant with a great program. Enticing nose, unexpectedly rich body with plenty of bright acidity, mineral undertones - delicious. — 2 years ago

Leirana Finca Genoveva Albarino 2022

Distributor describes this as taut and racy with mineral nerve, which are all apt adjectives. Lemongrass, pomelo, tangerine, and grapefruit pith. Very energetic and bright. Crying out for ceviche. Not cheap. — 3 months ago
