Bodegas Albamar, 'Albamar' Albariño, Rias Baixas, Spain, 2022

Overview The Wine
Xurxo Alba’s family has been farming and making Albariño in Rïas Baixas O Salnés region, near the Atlantic Ocean, for generations (Alba+mar). It wasn’t until Xurxo finished his oenology studies that the Alba family started bottling and commercializing their wines in 2006. The Alba family owns 2.5 hectares, and sources approximately 10 hectares throughout the region.

Albamar is one of only a handful (2%!) of domaines in the region using natural yeasts for their fermentation, which has a dramatic impact on both the aromatics and flavour of albariño, giving the wines much more depth, complexity and interest.

Biodynamic.

Winemaker's Tasting Notes
A combination of a few parcels of Albariño, all grown on well draining, sandy soils that produce highly aromatic wines.

Notes of lemon with a dust of sea salt, flint, green apple and yellow kiwi.

Pair it with roasted artichokes and sheep cheese.
