TASTING NOTE: This is a new producer to Ontario, but one with a reputation for fine winemaking that spans more than 30 years. This Albariño is floral, with aromas of honey and citrus atop peach, stone fruit and pear. Expressive and round with a good balance and depth and a fine acidity. Try this with jumbo shrimp or crab cakes. (Vintages panel, Aug. 2016) |
