Altos de Torona Barrica Albariño 2019

Tasting: Albariño is not frequently oak aged, but when it is done correctly it can produce exceptional wine, this example from Altos de Torona confirms that. The nose displays aromas of ripe, cooked citrus, with a sumptuous palate of ripe apricot, preserved lemon, kaffir lime and toasted wood notes.
