Hailing from the misty, windswept coast of Rías Baixas, Pazo Cilleiro Albariño 2023 is a true expression of Spain’s Atlantic frontier. The grapes are grown on granite-rich soils just kilometres from the sea, harvested in the cool of morning, and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel to retain freshness and aromatic purity. This is classic Albariño—zesty, saline, and full of coastal energy.
Bouquet
Bright and inviting, with aromas of lemon peel, green apple, and white peach, lifted by floral notes of orange blossom and wild herbs. A whisper of sea spray and crushed shell lingers in the background, giving a strong sense of place.
Palate
Crisp and clean, with lively acidity framing juicy citrus and stone fruit. The texture is silky yet vibrant, with mineral tension and a dry, saline finish. Pure, refreshing, and unmistakably Galician.
Food Pairing
Perfect with fresh oysters, grilled sardines, or a seafood paella. Also excellent with sushi, ceviche, or a light goat’s cheese and citrus salad. A natural pairing for anything from the ocean.
