Celdina, Rías Baixas DO (Galicia, Spain) Albariño 2022 ($16, Saranty Imports)

Jan 15, 2025

Wine label

Celdina’s Albariño challenges traditional notions of Rías Baixas wines by bringing you something with notes akin to sourdough and bruised apples with a creaminess of texture. Albariño is known for being both an aromatic and high-quality white variety and Celdina’s winemaking choices highlight the versatility of the grape. While I also appreciate Rías Baixas’ normally acid-driven and mineral profile, this lees-aged wine provides an exciting quality contrast.
