Maybe a couple of years ago it would have been great.

2006 vintage

Shiny yellow-green color that offers a unique experience of apple, orange, tarragon, dried flowers. Quite dense in the palate with a creamy consistency. Drink from 2011 to 2016.

I have trouble with price here and the "qpr"...this is 30$ CAN - i agree in essence with previous notes, and this is a nice style of white for me. The nose is light sweetish apple notes with perhaps floral notes. The palate is light to medium with a nice light amount of acid. Similar taste profile. Just trouble with high end price.

2008 vintage

Good – light, pale, off-dry, medium acid, citrus and green fruit (apples)

2008 vintage

Yellow color. Inviting scent filled with sweetness and tropical fruits. Taste is fruity, in a delicate and elegant way. Some green fruit in the middle, lime and green apples in the finish. Refreshing, great wine. Will buy again!

2008 vintage

Nose of lemon, pineapple, sea salt. Initial attack of white fruit on the palate is followed by a touch of lemon rind mixed with a good dose of salty minerals. The acidity comes on the finish like thunder after lightning, cleansing the palate with a spritzy dose of lemons, limes and grapefruit. A very pretty and interesting wine, as albarino always is!

2008 vintage

Had with risotto "fruttadimare", excellent combination. Yellow color. Inviting scent filled with sweetness and tropical fruits. Taste is fruity, in a delicate and elegant way. Some green fruit in the middle, lime and green apples in the finish. Refreshing, great wine. Will buy again!

Got better with age. Great with salmon this w/e

2006 vintage

Identical to my previous note.

2008 vintage

Wonderfully floral, a hypothetical cross between Riesling and Gewurz, tangerine; lovely juicy fruit, ripe acidity, lovely bitters; excellent length, apples; subtle and effusive.

2008 vintage

Superb albarino. One of the best? Certainly better than I remember - refreshing and zingy but full of character, almost viognier-like peachy tang.

2008 vintage

At Terroirs: big, fresh, authoritative, precise gooseberry fruit

2008 vintage

The winter served this well. Citrus fruit forward with crisp minerality. Very nice with mango salad and chicken.

2006 vintage

Clear with a tint of straw. Pear drops and apple on the nose. Full bodied and rich, a spritz in the mouth with refreshing acidity. Apple, citrus, floral and mineral characteristics on the palate. Good creamy finish. Long. Excellent.

2008 vintage

Agree with acidity but pleasant with a little time out of the bottle.

2006 vintage

Good wine but not very complex.

2006 vintage

Yellow. Clover and honey on top of lemony fruit. A bit sweet and plenty rich. Nice refreshing finish. Not too traditional but really nice.

2006 vintage

Clear, light straw colour with a moderate white rim and green tinge. clean, ripe forward white fruits, lemon-lime. touch of alc that seemed out of place and a bit of white pepper. dry, light fizz . High acid, forward fruits, apple, lemon, grapefruit and kiwi all stand out. Big steely mineralityon the finish. medium alc. med (-) body. Good quality, fun wine. might have a tad to much acidity. but not really worth complaining about. Drink now.

2006 vintage

one dimensional and very acidic. Ok with food but not great. Average or Good.
