The kind of Albarino that reminds you why the grape earned its reputation. Bodegas Albamar sits in O Salnes, the heart of Rias Baixas, where winemaker Xurxo Alba farms granitic, sandy soils right up against the Atlantic. His family grew Albarino here for generations before bottling their own in 2006. Native-yeast fermentation, no malolactic, and several months on fine lees give the wine a subtle creaminess to frame all that maritime cut. Salty, high-toned, and chalky on the finish, it tastes like the sea air it grew in.
