O Fillo da Condessa Albariño - Sustainable and Vegan

This wine was produced at Lagar da Condesa, located in the Valle do Salnés in the region of Galicia in the Northwest of Spain. Albariño grapes have been grown in Galicia for centuries. The wine was left on its lees to provide the roundness and creamy structure on the palate, and the optimal conditions were adhered to ensuring quality consumption.

Estate Albariño vines are handpicked in small baskets and then fermented in stainless steel. Fermented in stainless steel and aged three months on its fine lees, the resulting wine exhibits great aromatic intensity and refreshing acidity.

This Albariño shows the characteristic vibrant aromatics and flavors of citrus and white peach complemented by floral notes and the minerality that’s reminiscent of the sea.100% Albariño

92 points,  James Suckling:  Sliced apple, pear, lemon, and melon on the nose. Some jasmine, too. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity and a floral, fruity palate. Smooth and creamy finish. Vegan. Drink now.
 
90 points, Vinous:  Vivid straw. Mineral-inflected pear, lemon curd, honey, and fennel scents pick up a smoky nuance with air. Fleshy and dry on the palate, offering pliant citrus and orchard fruit flavors and a subtle floral topnote. Finishes long and chewy, with a repeating pear note and touch of spiciness.
