This wine makes me think of golden apples and Anjou pears. Medium body, crisp acidity and long lasting finish. :)

Aside from the curious albeit intriguing story about the "Poisonous Worm of Envy" that graces the front label (is a reference to poison on a beverage label ever a good thing?), the 2013 Eladio Piñeiro Envidia Cochina is a plunge into a world of grassy olive oil, fresh herbs, saline and brine, interlaced with lemon pith and lemon zest. Prickly, taught acidity comingles with mouth-coating chalk, in this medium-bodied, lively, decidedly different Albariño.

Delicious, complex version of Rias Baixas Albarino. I've included this little gem in my curated portfolio at davethewinemerchant.com
