Tasting Notes: We all know that great red wine gets better with time however there are certain white wines that we want to be as fresh as possible to appreciate the most. One of these grapes is the sensational Albarino’s coming out of Galicia in Spain. We have been able to get the very first of the 2011 vintage and this the Karina Victoria Albarino is singing. Our customers absolutely love Albarino. The wine is fresh and alive with superb white stone fruits, lovely apricot on the back palate, superb minerality and acidity. Albarino is considered to be the finest sea-food wine, grilled fish, sea bass, oysters….. A definite crowd pleaser.
"Albarino is a sunny wine even though it comes from a very wet region in Rias Baixas, Galicia located along the northwest Atlantic coast of Spain. The Karina Victoria is a delicious white wine that has lovely crisp acidity, yet a creamy mineral feel that adds depth and length. It has an abundance of tangerine and peach aromas and flavors that are pleasurable sip after sip. While appealing on its own, it pairs nicely with fish, seafood, paella, and chicken with a citrus sauce."
