Albariño is an aromatic, generally light-bodied, fresh white wine with mouth-watering acidity. Albariño is an indigenous white grape variety from Galicia in northwest Spain as well as northwest Portugal's Vinho Verde region. It primarily delivers crisp citrus, stone fruit, and light floral flavors with a saline edge. It is sometimes oak matured and aged.
