Bodegas la Val, Rias Baixas DO (Galicia, Spain) Albariño 2019

Jan 11, 2022

By Miranda Franco

 If you love coastal white wine and have yet to explore Rias Baixas (located on the southwestern coast of Galicia, Spain), it is time to remedy that now.  Rías Baixas is renowned for its Albariño and is among the world’s greatest white wine-producing regions, evidenced by this terroir-driven Albariño.  It exhibits a lovely saline character with white peach, pear, and lime zest notes.  This Albariño is textured and lush on the palate, with lots of wet-stone minerality and bright acidity leading up to the lingering finish.  This was made for shellfish and other light seafood dishes.
