Morgadio Albarino 2006
Region: Rias Baixas - Rating: 90

 
$29.50    / WN-111

Quantity:

 

COMPOSITION: 100% Albarino grapes.

TASTING NOTES:
"Bright straw. High-pitched citrus, quince and mineral aromas offer superb precision and energy. Brisk lemon, pear, quince and quinine flavors display excellent clarity, filling out with air and picking up a riper tangerine quality. Really saturates the palate but maintains superb focus, finishing on a lip-smacking note of lime zest, with outstanding persistence. - 90 points"

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: In 1984 a farm named "Morgadio" in the Rias Baixas sub-district of Condado do Tea near the aldea of Albeos was consolidated from multiple existing owners, and planting began. The vineyard area was gradually expanded to its current 50 acres. Within Ri­as Baixas there are three subdistricts: El Rosal and Val do Salnas on Galicia's rainy Atlantic coast, a situation remarkably reminiscent of Germany's Rheingau. Condado's benign climate, southern exposure and soil of brilliantly-reflective granite sand serve to maximize the Albariño's concentration.

BODEGA: As important as the great Albariño grape to the production of world-class white wine is the winemaking equipment. Just in time for the 1988 harvest, Morgadi­o finished a state- of-the-art gravity-flow facility at the bottom of the vineyard amphitheater which includes pneumatic presses and isothermic stainless steel tanks.
