“Brilliant, green-hued straw. Aromas of nectarine, orange, Anjou pear and white flowers, with a hint of fennel in the background. Fleshy orchard and pit fruit flavors tighten up with air. Shows very good energy on the long, chewy, mineral-driven finish, which leaves pear skin and honeysuckle notes behind.”

“The know-how of one of Spain’s top white winemakers, Marqués de Murrieta, shows in this, one of the most genuine, complex Albariños. Fermentation and four months’ ageing in large oak vats has conferred aromatic complexity, with just a hint of wood, alongside ripe apricot and quince maromas and a lovely floral expression. Impressively built, retaining delicious juiciness.”

“This white has a silky texture, polished and rich. Expressive flavors of quince, tangerine, mint and wet stone mingle over juicy acidity. Has a certain sun-dried intensity, but remains fresh and focused. Drink now through 2022.”
