(2024) From the coastal Salnés valley in Galicia, a cool area. Only Albariño is grown, all on pergola, and the wine is made in a combination of stainless steel and 500 and 600-litre French oak barrels. Wines from Salnes almost always show some saline, seaspray character and that's the situation here, against lemon rind and dry, apple core notes. In the mouth there is some breadth, some fruit brightness on the mid-palate hinting a honeyed quality, but it's that saline and light bready character that pushes through. Note price and stockist are for the previous vintage at time of review.
