Clean aromas of crisp pear are coated in a wet-stone veil on the nose of this bottling. The texture is impressive on the palate, giving a rocky backbone to the rounded pear, apple and melon flavors.

COMMENTARY: The 2021 Cadre Sea Queen Albarino is pleasing from start to finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine shines with aromas and flavors of dried earth, green apple, and a hint of chalk. Enjoy it with steamed mussels with an accent of red chili flakes.
