Appearance | The white wine Albariño Mar de Frades is deep straw with some greenish tinges. |
---|---|
Nose | This lively Albariño shows fresh aromas of lychees, ripe peaches, green apples and ripe pears, intertwined with notions of aromatic herbs, flowers and dim mineral notions. |
Palate | This wine of Bodega Mar de Frades (a brand of the Ramón Bilbao Group) has a lively, spirited character, a vibrant acidity and a great freshness. Remembrances of citrus, fresh fruit, fennel, aromatic herbs and a salty touch. Long, crisp, delicately mineral finish. |
Our personal opinion | Subtle, elegant and versatile, the wine Albariño Mar de Frades 2023 will pair nicely with Japanese food and pasta ai frutti di mare. |
