Varietal: Albariño
Wine: Albariño
Label: Martin Codax
Region: Spain
Year: 2009
Date Tasted: January 2012
Notes:
This dry white presents an interesting combination, with a very medium body and strong (for a white) approach, but a somewhat restrained flavor. Although this wine has some bite, the taste is more sour acidic than bright acidic. Although there is some complexity to the palate, the notes and tones are within a tight group, presenting nectarine, hibiscus, and lime, but without a broad fruitiness.
Although this wine will not become one of our "workhorse" bottles with broad appeal and applicability, it does fill a niche match with a lighter meal having strong flavors that need an equal to push back, such as the pasta and cream sauce that goes with strong onions in chicken tetrazzini.
