Reviewed May 2026The 2025 Albariño Kristy Vineyard is so effusive and enticing. Broad-shouldered, tropical and nearly electric in feel, the 2025 delivers salty, vivacious energy with confidence and drive. The acidity is high, that much is for sure, but there’s so much character and charm here. What a fabulous testament to this variety in this part of the world. (BN)

There's ample texture here, two days of skin contact for 33% of the wine, and 25% of it in concrete for three months. Ripe pops of honeyed apricot, juicy notes of melon, salty and fresh to finish. (CP)

Such a pretty little nose on this guy, there's such a casual elegance to it, unmistakably Albariño, with this gorgeous and perfectly ripe peach in a field of white flowers. The palate is still super peachy, but I get some yellow plum, and of course more white flowers. There's a kind of slightly stony minerality on the lingering finish, and there's gorgeous acidity pushing through the whole palate. This is definitely a porch wine for me, that sure you could pop the cork and just crush it, but with a couple finger foods or some cheese this would absolutely rule. I love it, summer fun all bottle long.
