Producer: Bodegas Martin Codax
Albariño wine (“alba-reen-yo”) is a delightfully refreshing coastal white that grows on the Iberian Peninsula. It’s loved for its rich stone fruit flavors, a hint of salinity, and zippy acidity. Excellent quality and Value and ideal accompaniment to seafood and shellfish fresh from the sea.
Over the summer months especially this is one of our favourite styles to keep in the fridge at all times. This coastal white is dry in style with juicy stone fruit and citrus flavours, it’s aromatic and slightly spicy and it is so, so damn refreshing!
Tasting Notes:
Brilliant pale lemon colour. Intense aromas of peaches, white flowers, minerals and a hint of fresh sea breeze. On the palate, well-balanced prominent acidity with stone fruits and light minerality. Lingering finish, with mouth-watering acidity and long complex persistence.
Food Pairing: Albariño is an absolute perfect wine match to fresh seafood – serve it chilled with the best kai moana dishes on offer. Grilled fish, calamari, oysters, mussels, clams or an antipasto platter.
