Torre la Moreira, Rias Baixas (Galicia, Spain) Albariño 2008

A beautifully packaged wine that is also very interesting on the inside, this shows a particularly zesty style for Albariño, with lots of zesty acidity and a fruit profile that is really more based on lemon/ lime than the somewhat more orthodox peach flavor.  The body straddles the line between light- and medium-bodied, with lots of energy and drive thanks to the especially abundant acidity.  This is likely to unwind and get even better over the course of the next year or two.
