Rias Baixas - Albarino

Albarino wine comes from the Rias Baixas region in Galicia northwest Spain, just above Portugal. This region produces some of the most exceptional white wines to come from Spain. Albarino is often likened to Riesling for its minerally qualities, and many wine experts argue that the two are in fact the same grapes, with the theory being that Riesling was brought to the area by German monks who were at the time establishing monasteries. The regulatory council of Rias Baixas however disagrees with this theory, insisting that the grape is indigenous to Spain. The wine is also similar in style to Viognier due to its aromatic qualities of peach and apricot.
