Castro Martin is a benchmark Albarino producer that exemplifies the cool, damp coastal granite of Val do Salnes, the birthplace and sub-region of the purest of Albariños in Rias Baixas, just north of Portugal on the Atlantic coast. For the 2017 bottling, the Australian importer requested the Bodegas select their finest tank to be unfiltered to preserve all the textural enjoyment. Expect flavours of pears and tangy citrus over traces of green apple and moderate acidity. 12.5% Alc./Vol.
