Albarino
Albarino
Found mainly in Spain and Portugal, Albarino is a white grape variety that produces crisp, light wines with good acidity. The most well-known Albarino wines come from Spain`s Rias Baixas region, in south-west Galicia, where the grape thrives in the cool, maritime climate. Wines made with Albarino are often marked by stone-fruit flavours of peach and apricot, with alcohol levels of between 11.5 and 12.5 percent. Albarino is also seeing increased plantings in the United States, Australia and New Zealand.
