Castro Martin Albarino 'Sobre Lias' 2022

The delightful Angela Martin and her husband, Andrew McCarthy, run the Castro Martin estate in Rias Baixas, on Spain's Galician coast, where production of Albarino at their bodega can be traced back to as far as 1887. Classic Albarino hallmarks show generously in this wine - a fragrant, opulent nose that is tempered by teeth-chattering acidity and saline texture.

Serra da Estrela Albarino 2022

We rarely see Albarino - arguably Spain’s best known & most popular white variety - at this low price. If you imagine a blend of Riesling, unwooded Chardonnay and Viognier, you’re on the right track. Fresh, aromatic, fragrant. Mid-weight, crunchy and zippy on the palate. Basically, delicious.
