Named after the Galician writer and poet Rosalia de Castro; and how appropriate—a lyrical white wine—Albariño—aptly dry; abundant acid; and a broad spectrum of flavor characteristics. Notes of green apple, subtle detection of nutmeg, New Mexico pine nuts and anise.

Unpretentious, where acid and fruit are in a harmonious play with each other and give a wine that is distinct. This wine presents with notes of citron, dried banana, mid-summer mission fig and slight hint of cardamom.

Rich and racy acid; low alcohol make for a perfect wine for food, in particular, shell fish; complex wine with bold spice – nutmeg, allspice but do not overpower the white Heirloom tomato and white nectarine.
¡Salud!

Nora Albariño a wondrous wine to enjoy as a stand-alone wine or with food; an excellent seafood wine or with Spanish almonds. This wine gives abundance of fresh cut grass, Meyer lemon zest, Granny Smith apple, kiwi, and Adriatic fig. Any time I drink an Albarino I think of a kiwi farm where many vineyards once held kiwi plantings. Albarino’s are more expensive than some American whites but have a rightful place in the culinary and wine worlds.
