Product Notes

Pazo Barrantes La Comtesse Albariño is an exquisite Spanish wine emanating from the revered Rias Baixas region of Galicia. Boasting an opulent profile layered with refreshing citrus tones and delicate floral undertones, it exhibits a sophisticated complexity. The allure of ripe peach and soft vanilla adds depth to its aromatic character. On the palate, it stuns with its silken texture, radiant minerality, and an intoxicating finish. True to its Albariño nature, it presents a beautiful integration of acidity and roundness. This wine is a true gastronomic delight, an impeccable choice for those seeking a luxurious, matured white wine.

Tasting Notes

An infinite nose where lychee, quince fruit and lemon peel flavours, harmonize gracefully with hints of acacia flowers, fennel and eucalyptus. A minerality edge provides refinement to the whole. Harmonious mouthfeel, its silky texture leads to an endless finish.
