Appearance

The white wine Albariño sobre lías Fefiñanes III Año is deep straw with some golden tinges.

Nose

Intense, subtle and elegant, this Albariño aged on lees carries some lively aromas of white and tropical fruit, a note of citrus, and some honey nuances that evolve into lactic sensations, notions of fresh herbs, flowers, and some mineral undertones.

Palate

Terroir-bound and nuanced, this white wine from the Palacio de Fefiñanes winery has an intricate texture and a remarkable complexity. A note of lime and tropical fruit, a dash of flintstone, specks of white flowers, and a tip of aromatic herbs and fennel. Great, powerful acidity and a very long, slightly bitter finish.

Our personal opinion

Age-worthy and deep, the wine Albariño de Fefiñanes 2021 is a world-class white wine.
