Tasting Valminor Albarino 2015


Name: Valminor Albarino
Variety: Albarino
Year: 2015
Region: Rias Baixas
Country: Spain
Price: $9.95
Winery review:   "Gloriously aromatic with jasmine and flint notes; very scented. Full and fleshy palate, a mineral follow-through and intense, harmonious finish. A very lovely Albarino that is so pure."
My review: There was a certain floral smell. It also seemed sweet and peachy to the nose. Upon tasting, a citrus taste of some sort was evident. But the aftertaste of vinegar and harsh acids ruined the fruitiness. 
 
I tasted this on its own with no food.
