Forjas del Salnés Leirana Albariño 2022

''The vibrant Leirana is powerful with minerality, showcasing the serious style of the whites. It has an electric palate that is clean and tasty, with a stony finish.'' 93 Points, Luis Gutierrez, Wine Advocate Magazine

''The vibrant Leirana is powerful with granite minerality, showcasing the serious style of the whites. It has an electric palate that is clean and tasty, with a stony finish. This represents the Salnés region of Rías Baixas very well.''93 Points, Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate Magazine 

''Fresh melon, white peach and tangerine scents show fine clarity and pick up a smoky mineral quality with aeration. Vibrant, spice- and mineral-tinged citrus fruit, nectarine and honeydew flavors deepen steadily on the back half. Closes very long and silky, with resonating peach and mineral qualities and a suave floral nuance.'' 92 Points, Vinous Media (Previous Vintage Review)

 ''Albariño is the signature grape of Spain’s Rias Baixas region, just north of Portugal. Leirana comes from vineyards close to the sea, giving it a crisp acidic line and a saline quality. Exceptional.'' Dave McIntyre, The Washington Post

Leirana Albariño has a very clean, bright, straw yellow colour with some steely and golden tinges.Single vineyard, 70 year old average vine age. There is a pronounced salinity to this wine that serves to accentuate the flinty mineral tones and complement the juicy stone fruit. The wine shows touches of citrus, peaches, apples and lime.This is impeccably balanced and beautifully structured.
