Family Estates Organic Albariño 2023

Albariño is more commonly found in northwest Spain and Portugal, but it has found a new lease of life in the stony, free-draining alluvial soils of Marlborough. A lushly textured, pale, off-dry wine, produced from our organic certified Headwaters Vineyard in the Wairau Valley. Refreshing acidity and an exotic medley of wonderful stone fruit flavours, with ripe citrus, pear, melon offering hints of white spice on the palate.

Herbal notes with a limey perfume. Mineral and some tropical elements.
Soft on entry with lime, orange and lemon with spice. Good mid-palate weight and nice acid drive. Citrus blossom lingers on finish. Lively.
