Orballo Albariño is a vibrant and expressive white wine from the O Rosal subregion of Rías Baixas in northwestern Spain. Bursting with citrus, white fruit and floral aromas, complemented by subtle saline and mineral notes, this wine reflects the unique coastal terroir where Atlantic influences and careful vineyard management produce fresh, aromatic whites of remarkable precision. Why You'll Love It This is Rías Baixas Albariño at its finest—fresh, aromatic, and beautifully balanced. Crafted exclusively from estate-grown grapes in the O Rosal subregion, Orballo showcases the distinctive coastal character of this celebrated Spanish white wine region. The wine is aged for six months on lees in stainless steel, six months in concrete egg, and six months in ceramic tanks to enhance texture and complexity, resulting in a wine with exceptional depth and minerality. Vineyard & Production Grapes are grown in the estate's own vineyards in O Rosal, planted on well-drained soils that benefit from cooling Atlantic breezes. Meticulous vineyard management ensures optimal ripeness and aromatic intensity. Hand-harvested in 20 kg cases, grapes undergo a 6-hour cold maceration at 10°C, followed by gentle pressing. Fermentation occurs naturally in 5,000-litre stainless steel tanks over 2–3 weeks at 16°C. The wine is then aged for six months on its lees in stainless steel, six months in concrete egg, and six months in ceramic tanks. Tasting Notes This fresh and aromatic Albariño opens with notes of citrus, pear and apricot, layered with delicate floral and saline nuances. The palate is medium-bodied and fruit-driven, showing flavours of pear and apricot with vibrant acidity. The finish is long, crisp and mineral-driven with a distinctive saline character. Perfect Pairings A versatile food wine, perfect with seafood, grilled fish, fresh cheeses, foie gras, chicken, rice dishes, or pasta. Serve chilled at 12°C. Also excellent with shellfish and coastal cuisine. The Blend 100% Albariño
