Nutty and oxidative on the nose yet opens up to gripping acidity.

There's now one less of these in the world, and my goal is to drink the other 600 some-odd bottles myself. I'll share with you if you're here. The closest relative to this is Jurassic savagnin under flor, but this is fresher, with more citrus and saline amplifying the biological aging elements. Insistent and demanding and deep and long and unforgettable.

Insistent. Demanding. Takes over your palate and doesn't let it go for a long, long time. Albarín, which is possibly clonal Albariño, possibly Savagnin, or possibly the offspring of the two, depending on who you're talking to. Aged under flor for 3 years, and it definitely carries those biological aging notes along with some oxidation, but not at the expense of freshness. Wow. I mean wow. I mean...

Albarín aged under flor into beautiful, salty tannic perfection. The dichotomy of fresh and biologically aged is unlike anything I've ever had.

Aged under voile for 3 years. Like the Jura, the Loire and the Spanish coast had a conference on how to take over the world. Tasted over 3 days, it's a real gem. I'm honored to have been given bottle.
