Albarino Wines

Yellow straw colour with green reflections. Clear and bright with an excellent appearance. Very aromatic, fruity nuances like peach and custard apple, balsamic (mint) and mineral notes. Fresh and harmonious in the mouth, well-balanced in acidity a...

Albarino is a tough little bugger. It braves wet growing, and harvesting, conditions that bring with it all manner of disease threats, to bring you a medium-bodied white wine that is made for seafood. This offering from Bodegas Eidosela is a albar...

From top producers deploying the most careful viticulture and winemaking under the duress of the Atlantic climate, Albariño can prove a truly wonderful variety, combining heady richness and texture with a nervous, tingly-mineral acid line. Ría...

Cracka is going crazy on Spanish wines and why - because we love them and reckon there is no better value going round. This is our little Welcome to Spain pack - just a taste of all that makes Spanish wine so damn good. We've got a handful of savo...

Yellow with green hues, aromatic herbs, candied fruits, toasted cereals, mineral finish, round on the palate, fresh ripe fruit and fine lees.

Albarino is the noble white of Galicia in northern Spain, and this offering from Castro Martin is atypical of the style. Medium-bodied and dry in nature, it displays scents of stone fruits and pears on the nose, with just a hint of seaweed. The pa...

The noble Galician grape albarino gets another spin here in this offering from renown producers Eidosela. It's dry and rich in style, with secnts of ripe nectorines and ginger spice on the nose, together wth whiffs of honeysuckle. The palate is me...

Albarino is the noble white of the Spanish region Galicia, which means these are awesome seafood wines. This offering from Valminor is dry and tropical in style, with scents of green apples and citrus in the mix. The palate is medium-bodied, with ...

I love a bit of Albarino – so fresh and juicy, and with that distinctive Spanish tang from up on the Atlantic coast. Green melon, apple and citrus fruit, lightweight and great finish with some good critic scores too. Some people might call it Sauv...

Albarino is still being discovered to some degree here in Oz, but it's fast becoming a favourite with the Cracka crew because they are just so damn glugable! This one is top notch stuff that shows loads of appealing spicy peaches, lemon citrus and...

A cheeky Albarino from Northern Spain, the appeal of this unwooded dry white is that lovely juicy texture and salty tang, all of which just sings out 'drink me with seafood or a good paella'. Excellent thirst slaker...

Perhaps Australia's most famous Savagnin (nee Albarino, but let's not get started on that story) this makes a mark with it's texture - that extra filip of richness that makes this more generous and interesting than so many other whites.

Attractively scented, medium-bodied wine with vibrant, ripe, peach and pear flavours, slightly spicy and woven with fresh acidity. Tight, ageworthy wine, partly (15 per cent) barrel-fermented.

Full to deep yellow colour: looks forward developed. Apricot aromas, possibly sunburnt fruit. Tastes light and simple, oily, somewhat flat and a trifle clumsy. Dried apricots. Soft, round, shapeless and fat. No subtlety, delicacy or refreshing qua...

Medium to full yellow colour; some age. Strange aroma; developed and slightly earthy/musty. Some sweetness early, and then a slightly mawkish broadness and thickness on the finish. Some green herb taste within the palate flavours. Soft, round, dev...

Deep yellow colour; looks quite mature. Rich, evolved, expressive peachy aromas, with honey and fig jam aromas. Palate is full, developed and rather broad, without finesse or delicacy. Slightly shrill acidity shortens the palate. Odd wine, becomin...

Deep yellow, very forward colour. Smells of fig jam and cooked apricot, but lacks freshness and youthful appeal. Honey and malt botrytis influences. Quite developed. Soft rounded palate with some oily mouthfeel. OK drinking, but would be better wi...

To the Galicians, albarino is as important to them as chardonnay is to Oz, and this one is a serious wine where albarino is the main act. Aromas of ripe stone fruits, spiciness and chopped herbs fills the nasal passages, whilst the palate is mediu...
