Sea-spray, white peach, a flinty tail.

Importer’s noteAllocation

Rodri Méndez farms Albariño on parcels you can almost throw a stone into the ocean from. The 2023 was a tense vintage — small berries, sharp acidity. He held the wine on lees longer than usual and it shows: a salinity that drinks like the coast itself.
