Adegas Gran Vinum Mar de Viñas Albariño Rias Baixas/Val do Salnes 2018
A glass w work lunch of homegrown tomatoe/avocado and tinned sardines.
Medium yellow color. Aromas of drupe fruits (peach/apricot). Mouth is more about peach pit with a hint of bitterness and a savory, salty element. Went better w the tomatoes than the sardines (umami harmony?)

This yellow-gold wine has aromas that are more herbal than floral, with savory dill bolstering the citrus and stone fruit. The palate carries much citrus along with savory balsamic notes. Acidity is great, and makes for a lively pairing with a variety of salads and seafood. — 7 years ago

Would have not guess it was an Albariño. Great balance and minerality. — 9 years ago

Very good. Honey comb, almonds, apricots, pineapple and green apples. Very high acidity balances the sweetness. More mid-palate action and a longer finish would make this an even better wine. — 10 years ago

Smooth and nice. I try many different REDS and tonight spent 20 on this 2011 Clos Du Val bottle. I Strongly recommend. A definite buy again for a nice impressive CAB. For anyone out there who likes CABS And wants to impress your local coffee club crowd. DO IT! — 11 years ago

Cherry and spice on the nose. Almost white peppery. A bit bitter at fitst but gets better. Very woody tannind and a lot of oak. I think a long decant might help do this wine justice. — 10 years ago
