Rías Baixas Albariño

A wine from Jorge Ordóñez and his winemaking team. Pale lemon color with crisp stone fruit and citrus aromas. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and melon with lemon citrus, consistent offering from La Cana. Medium finish ending with fruit, spice and mineral tang. Nice value.

Gets better every time.

Salty AF with a hint of…mango??? on the nose and slight orange blossoms color-forming in the background. The palate is textured, reminding me of the feel of suede (forgive me, I’m a vegetarian, but remember the feel of suede). It is so soft and suave but also textured. It brings in a bitter orange, Saturn peach and peach yogurt flavor sensation, prickling with acidity and, yes, again, salinity.

This was my first Albariño, and I loved it! Bright, fresh acidity with lemon and pear notes on the palate. The finish has mineral notes coming through as well. Paired nicely with paella. Vintage was 2023.

Crisp with some great minerality.

2023

Mild, green apple overtones, smooth, pairs well with seafood.

Fantastic, acidic brightness, great flavor.
