“Spain’s first sparkling Albariño is a great success.” – Steven Spurrier Decanter
We have long been fans of Mar de Frades Albariño Atlántico so you can imagine our excitement when the Rías Baixas super producer released the world’s first Champagne method sparkling wine made with 100% Albariño. Summers will never be the same again.
The critics at Wine Enthusiast once said of the still version that: “The wine itself is as catchy as Mar de Frades’ signature blue bottle.” And the same applies to the bone-dry fizz it’s every bit as striking and oceanic as its bottle suggests. Pour a glass and let waves of seawater eucalyptus almond croissant toast cream white peach apricot pineapple melon and lemon zest wash over you. Chill it down and when the blue galleon appears on the thermochromic back label you’re good to get this party started.
Working with 150 growers in Val do Salnés winemaker Paula Fandiño has created a wonderfully innovative Albariño. And as you’d expect from the seafood-loving grape of Galicia this is going to love sushi sashimi fish and chips Baja tacos tempura smoked salmon scallops oysters and white anchovies. But we also love it with Thai Vietnamese and Malaysian dishes canapés sunshine and picnics on the beach.
