"The Albariños from Pedralonga are equally dramatic, if showing more mineral and saline depth. (erg. The US-Importer John) Pastor drew comparisons to Loire whites, and thats really apt -indeed, he said, Galicia is the next Loire. Not sure whether that's blessing for success but if you love the mineral-charged whites and reds of the Loire we'll be covering some happy ground here."

Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Jan 2016 - Josh Raynolds - 2014 Francisco Alfonso Albarino Pedralonga 2014 - 92 points - ($29)
Pale chartreuse color. Intense mineral-accented aromas of Meyer lemon, green apple, quince and white flowers. Silky and seamless on the palate, offering bitter pear skin and citrus pith flavors with subtle herb and mineral nuances. Shows excellent power and lift on the finish, which hangs on with serious mineral and floral persistence. -- Josh Raynolds 92 Josh Raynolds 2016 - 2020 $29.00 Jan 2016
