Mmmmm this is a porch pounder! Light lemon/lime with nice mineral and salt. I would call it “round” not crisp. Delish.

A pure & wild expression of #albarino - reminiscent of 1er Cru Chablis or a fine Muscadet. Very cool, if a little wine-nerdy. Admittedly I am a fiend for Albariño... — 10 years ago
