Balfour Albarino

"Ideally suited to our climate - it’s so exciting to be at the birth of a new style for English Wine" Fergus Elias, Head Winemaker.

 Now in its second release, this hugely popular wine offers a rare and expressive take on the Galician classic. Still zesty and fresh, this vintage shows a little more texture and finesse. The subtle oak brings a gentle roundness, softening the acidity while maintaining its signature saline edge. Hailed by wine writer Henry Jeffreys as one of England’s "most important wines", this Albariño remains essential drinking for fans of fragrant whites like Sauvignon Blanc and Bacchus.

 Appearance:

 Pale golden with a slight green hue, hinting at its fresh, vibrant character.

 Nose:

 Aromatic and citrus-driven, with notes of zesty lime, lemon, and hints of sea spray, adding a saline minerality.

Palate:

 Crisp and refreshing with notes of citrus zest, green apple and saline minerality. The palate is rounded and subtly textured, with a long, clean finish.

 Winemaker’s Food Pairing:

 Fresh and fragrant, perfect with seafood from our shores. For something more adventurous, try it with ceviche or feta. Alternatively, enjoy as an invigorating aperitif on a warm summer’s evening.
