Ok, this is a quick wine recommendation. I know that a lot of my friends have wives. Those wives like to drink white wine. Those same friends don’t know anything at all about white wine. So, I’m going to make it easy for you. Go to your local bottle shop and pick up a bottle of this Lolo Albarino (al-baa-ree-nyo), take it to her, open it, pour her a glass and watch what happens. She will be stoked and you will be a hero. When she asks you about it, you can tell her it’s from Rías Baixas (ree-ahs buy-shuss), which is a region in Galicia, located in northwest Spain. It is a gorgeous, lush and green area along the Atlantic seacoast, directly above Portugal. Tell her if she plays her cards right you will take her there someday. If she doesn’t respond to that, then you are in serious trouble, you better start checking her texts. Most likely you will need a can of bear mace to keep her off of you after this though. You’re welcome!
Tasting notes: Clean, bright straw yellow with green highlights. Neat and fragrant on the nose, with intense floral and herbaceous notes, and hints of ripe fruit flavors. This wine is dry with good balance and a refreshing acidity which shows varietal character. Very healthy feel in the mouth with a long, clean, lingering finish.
