The 2022 Albariño Gran Vino aged for four months on lees, followed by eight months in stainless steel, with 15% aged in acacia barrels. It opens with fine notes of linden blossom and anise, alongside pear, biscuit and a balsamic hint of eucalyptus, plus a touch of apricot. This is creamy and flavorful, with a supple texture and a fresh lift. It is ready to drink now. The 2022 is an interesting style that emphasizes aging character over primary fruit.

Deep purple. Deep and gravelly, lightly spicy, equal parts fruit and earth. Much more density and weight to the palate than the Othello. Still very fresh, but with tighter-knit tannin and slightly tighter weave. Fresh acid drives a lengthy finish.

This is a layered and complex rosé showing aromas ranging from strawberries, apricot pits and pink grapefruits to nutmeg, pastries and rust. It’s firm, focused and minerally with a tight mousse and a long, taut finish. Drink or hold.

This bone-dry rosé Champagne is crisp and taut, showing aromas of grapefruit, crushed stones, apples and a hint of nutmeg. It’s fresh and minerally, with tight bubbles and lots of tension. Shows restraint. Drink or hold.

Berries and dried grapefruit with hints of salty biscuits, toast and flint on the nose of this dry Champagne. Very savory yet rich, broad shouldered and textured, too, with a firm,chalky finish. From lieu-dit La Riviere in Cumieres. Drink now or hold.
