Alvear

Fino Montilla-Moriles Pedro Ximinez

N: Big acetone, oranges, varnish. This isn’t a seaside fino, as it’s Pedro Ximinez from Montilla-Moriles. Inland. The salinity is less so than in the Jerez models.
P: Nuts , oranges,like a dry marmalade,lots of fruit. Almonds.
Really nice on a hot day.
Thanks@Enramistas.

Txomin Etxaniz

Getariako Txakolina Txakoli 2019

This is one of my favorite white wines of all time and this vintage is the best I’ve ever tasted. Lemongrass, honey suckle, saline notes, mist, and slightly effervescent. Seaside liquid freshness with low acidity, low alcohol, but medium plus body. From an indigenous grape in Basque Country in Norther Spain, so pleasantly good, a crowd pleaser for sure! Good value to top it all off, hovering around the twenty some dollar range. — 3 years ago

Clos Ste. Magdeleine

Cassis Blanc Marsanne Blend 2022

2022 vintage. 40% Marsanne. 25% Clairette. 30% Ugni Blanc. 5% Bourboulenc. Medium-bodied. For those times when you don't want bubbles, Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc...perfect shellfish and white-fleshed fish pairing along with lunch salads and lighter soups. Or, you could just sip it by the seaside. Tastes entirely appropriate. 10.18.23. — 7 months ago

Cellers Can Blau

Blau Montsant Red Blend 2018

In one fell swoop kick off the sandals, throw off the shirt, hop skip across sun-baked flat tile stones and dive with a swan’s assurance into the seaside swimming pool, warmed only by the elements, and just as mysterious, elusive and temperamental…….

Envinate

Lousas Parcela Seoane Mencía 2019

Baby’s 1st parcela unica and gotta say, it delivered! I like the Envinate Lousas wines—they’re always pretty good but usually a bit green and not profundo imo. This one started that way but as it opened, the high acid rolled off to reveal an extremely terroir driven wine, ripping w tension and minerality. The Lousas mencias usually give fancy n rhone vibes to me (i.e. entry level jamet), but Seoane had more of a juicy mineral burg thing going on (think Irancy) than a meaty rock thing. The bride observed wisely that this wine tasted very mineral and oceanic, but more like a seaside cliff than a briny beach. — 8 months ago

Bodega Fundada

Albariño D' Fefinanes Albariño 2021

Just love this wine, from seaside town of Comados (birthplace of Albariño), one of the oldest wineries of the region. Bright pale lemon with pronounced tropical fruit aromas and citrus scents. On the palate pear, apricot and peach flavors with honey lemon zest and hints of salinity. Well balanced with pleasant lively acidity, finishing with mineral, honey and wet stone nuances on the medium ending. Very nice! Should improve over the next few years. Nice value — 2 years ago

Casa D'Ambra

Tenuta Frassitelli Ischia Biancolella 2019

Sunday night wine when the Monday tomorrow isn’t packed is such a wonderful treat. There are no more weekend obligations, just the unwinding of a warm week. A transitory time before the start of the next.

Frankly is starting to peg me for a particular palate. Apparently I like complex, versatile, and idiosyncratic white wines. Right now, this season, this moment. Yes. Tomorrow, who knows?

Aromatic. Perfume like citrus blossom. A bit of lavender.

This is super interesting. Kind of reminds me slightly of Falanghina. As promised, there’s that seaside saline quality, which I love. A little nutty. A little minerals. Flowers blossoming.

This is nice. The first three bottles recommended win out, but I’m glad to try a varietal I’ve never had before. Won’t be going to the Amalfi this summer anymore, but at least I can have something close enough in a glass.
