    Tropical fruit, apple and citrus aromas are chunky. A plump, mellow palate with modest acidity is home to peach, mango and papaya flavors. A soft finish is easygoing but suggests that this should be drunk as soon as possible.

    Varietally correct aromas of peach and melon form a good opening to this mostly fresh but fading Albariño. Flavors of melon, papaya and peach are typical for the grape, and the finish is holding on but showing signs of maturation. Drink immediately.

    Leesy, dusty aromas are pithy and lose freshness with airing. This feels full and moderately acidic, with tropical flavors of melon, apple and banana. A sweet-tasting finish is mild in feel and meets expectations for everyday Albariño.
