Tasting Notes

A straw yellow color wine with green reflections. On the nose there are predominate fruity notes and touches of vegetables, typical of the Albarín grape. In the mouth it is fresh, acidic, fruity, with considerable body and with a tasty and persistent palate. The Albarín grape is an indigenous grape from the south of the province of Leon and Asturias. This grape variety has almost disappeared yet Pardevalles have recuperated it.

Pardevalles Estate was founded in 1949 by Rafael Alonso, in line with a family tradition going back generations dedicated to growing grapes and making wine. At the present time the 2nd and 3rd generations of the family operate the Estate, preserving the essence with which it was founded.
The philosophy of the Estate is grounded in making wines which express the character and identity of their origin, with a deep respect for the earth and the indigenous varieties of grape, combining tradition, innovation, and good work.

Critical Praise

"Loving the chalky accents here, which punctuate the green-apple and citrus overtones. Light-bodied with stony nuances, bright acidity and a crunchy, crisp finish. Drink now.", James Suckling
