A deeper look at underwater wine aging
The waters, were calm. Just a few hours earlier they’d been a roiling mass of nature at its most violent; a cold boil of northern stormfront that had nearly derailed the boat tour planned for the morning. The boat in question wasn’t large and was made a good deal smaller once a dozen people boarded it, but it cut a calm path out from the harbor of O Grove, a coastal town near Pontevedra, Galicia. Narrating the adventure as we went out was, Laura Vázquez, the wife of Robustiano Fariña, […] For full access, please log in or purchase a subscription.

LEARNING ABOUT WINE: Ranking Albariño Producers

LEARNING ABOUT WINE: Albariño Across Rías Baixas
Albariño Across Rías Baixas Albariño is often introduced as a single Galician white wine: crisp, aromatic, coastal, and useful at the table. That description leaves out the local differences that shape the grape. Rías Baixas is divided into five subzones, and those subzones do not behave alike. Val do Salnés, O Rosal, Condado do Tea, ...

Attis – Albariño 2025
It’s ironic to think that in our current age of wine that there are so many producers who want to “stick it to the man” and ditch their regional organizations in Europe. Clearly, there were sound reasons when it came to everyone of higher quality leaving Cava. And Collioure-Banyuls breaking off from Roussillon also made sense. But beyond these few, rational examples of groups, there remain a good number of individual producers who often say, “screw it” and go it alone. Artadi in Rioja comes immediately to mind as they […] For full access, please log in or purchase a subscription.

Albariño: the grape & wine
Albariño : the grape & wines Many white wine drinkers reach instinctively for familiar favourites like Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, or Pinot Grigio. There is nothing wrong with any of these well-known varieties but looking further afield there is a world of exciting alternative white wines. None of these alternatives is more refreshing, versatile and food-friendly than Albariño (pronounced phonetically as Alba-reen-yo). If you’re looking to expand your palate and discover a white wine that balances elegance with vibrancy, Albariño may be exactly what you are missing. In my opinion, Albariño, especially from the Rías Baixas DO, is one of the best Spanish (and Portuguese) still white wines today. In this comprehensive guide, I’ll explore everything you need to know about the Albariño grape and its wines — from its origins and flavour profile to food pairings and buying tips—so that you can skip the Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Pinot shelves and find a great bottle of this delicious wine ins
