Tim Atkin: Pale straw/lemon. Attractive, stone-fruit and citrus nose, fresh and alluring, very Albariño. Super wine, lots of volume and spice, with pepper and intensity and length and crispness, nicely framed by pear and citrus fruit. A very focused wine, with a chalkiness that is almost Chablis-like. Long and zingy 17
Jesús Barquín: Golden yellow, though not very deep. Expressive and clean nose, with a charming spicy note (rhubarb). Slightly off-dry, which makes the palate lack a little bite but, at the same time, seems to give it extra persistence 15.5
Simon Field: Dense color; straw going on gold, then a slightly stewed nose: Braeburns toward the end of the season. The palate has a finely weaved texture, a fruit profile dominated by peaches and apricots, balancing acidity, and a generous nutty finish 16
