Martin Codax, Rias Baixas (Galicia, Spain) Albarino 2016

Jun 5, 2018

By Robert Whitley

  Martin Codax is among the finest wine cooperatives in the world, consistently producing excellent Albarino with grapes sourced from dozens if not hundreds of small farmers in the Rias Baixas.  The standards are high at Martin Codax and it shows.  This vintage combines richness with freshness.  The wine is beautifully balanced, showing notes of citrus and stone fruit with a light floral touch.  A platinum award-winner at the 2018 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
