The Greatest Wines of the World are produced where the grape variety finds the ideal conditions to express itself in a natural and authentic way; like at Garzón, where they produce wines that result from the perfect integration of terroir and the different cultivated varieties.
Bodega Garzón is close to Punta del Este, La Barra and José Ignacio, the Uruguayan paradise with mesmerizing landscapes and the perfect combination of past, present and future. The charm of this sophisticated region, located among sloping hills that meet the sea is portrayed in the postcards of Garzón, a small town with 600 inhabitants which is home to tourists, farmers and local artists. This picturesque landscape offers the best environment for their vineyards, orchards and groves.
The wines love the terroir of Garzón with its ballast hills, a soft, stony soil and Atlantic breezes flowing over the vines that result in perfect conditions for creating elegant and complex wines. Therefore, Garzon products are the result of a careful selection of terroir which is appropriate for the development of premium wines and a wide range of grape varieties. This allows the best winemakers to experiment with a new environment and create optimal blends for a market increasingly eager for new wines. The resultant winemaking is focused on producing wines of the highest quality with a distinctive identity, strong personality and sense of place.
TASTING NOTE
This Albariño is of a pale yellow colour with greenish reflections and fruity aromas reminding of peach; balanced with citric notes. It is fresh and mineral with a marked acidity and a long and rounded aftertaste in mouth. Its ripening time takes place between 3 to 6 months on fine lees in stainless-steel tanks.
FOOD PAIRING
Excellent pairings for this wine are cod with cockles, citrus prawn salad, or traditional grilled seafood with warm mango salad and beans. It is delightfully well suited to Asian food, Peruvian ceviche, or a fresh tuna salad.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
SJ93, The Somm Journal
"Minerality and salinity prompt rich lime, persimmon, and honeyed pear in this white that brims with personality. The flavors travel all over the palate, zinging with peppy verve."
JS91, James Suckling
"Aromas of sliced pear, melon, mango and honeysuckle. Medium-bodied with tangy acidity and a juicy, fruity and fresh palate."
WW91, Wilfred Wong of Wine.com
"COMMENTARY: The 2021 Garzon Albarino is a charming white wine. TASTING NOTES: This wine shines with aromas and flavors of ripe stone fruit, flowers, and a hint of chalkiness. Try it with Cantonese raw fish salad. (Tasted: June 18, 2022, San Francisco, CA)"
