Valtea Albariño

Valtea Albariño is made from 100% Albariño grapes from Pontefederra in the Ribera de Ulla sub-zone in Rias Baixas (the northern most sub-zone). This offering is typical Albariño with deliciously floral and hay aromas with flavours of lemon, lime, honeydew, apple and pear. It is dry, complex and has a long finish with trademark Albariño acidity, providing mouth-watering minerality and delicious saline notes courtesy of vine proximity with the Atlantic. This 2020 offering is starting to develop some sweeter flavours of peach, apricot and honey.   

Perfect Pairing: Albariño is synonymous with seafood (oysters clams, mussels, fish crustaceans) and is a bedrock of Galician cuisine. It also pairs particularly well with creamy chicken dishes, risottos and Asian meals with Tofu. A beautiful match for Spanish Manchego, and salty feta. Albariño is fresh and bright and is outstanding with grilled vegetables and salads.
