2009 Fillaboa Granja Albarino Rias Baixas

2009 Fillaboa Granja Albarino Rias Baixas

I enjoyed this wine at San Francisco’s Spruce restaurant, which I highly recommend, and absolutely loved it.

On the nose, this Spanish wine is perfumed with sweet green apple and light lemony notes.  In the mouth, this affordable Albarino is crisp and dry with lime zest and more green apple flavors.  The finish is long with a great level of acidity.

Pairings:  Pork belly, blackened chicken, grilled salmon.

Style: White

Grape Type(s): Albarino

Region: Rias Baixas, Spain

Around $20.
