Description Albariño has fast become a star of fresh white wines. Customers love its crisp, distinctive character. The two prime places to find the grape are in Rîas Baixas, north-west Spain, and just over the border in northern Portugal (known there as Alvarinho). Due to the raging demand for Albariño, our buyer Sarah Everden set out to find you the very best she could. She found gold with Juan Antonio Leza’s daring blend. Leza is a renowned winemaker having worked for a top Rioja winery. Happy to break some rules to make the perfect wine, he crossed borders to craft this white. In truth it’s only ‘rule breaking’ by a stroke of a pen that establishes the national borders. And who cares when it tastes this good? Fresh peaches and nectarine, bright citrus core and elegant minerality. Sea-breeze fresh, 5-star with seafood.
