Flavor Profile
Drive through northern California, and you’ll see family homes with charming back gardens planted with a diverse array of grape vines. Small plots like these have helped introduce numerous varieties to the Golden State—such as Albariño. Originally from Spain, this star white grape variety has found a welcome home in the premium Clarksburg region.
Bordered by the cooling waterways of the Sacramento River Delta, Clarksburg is optimum winemaking territory. The growing season is long, due to the moderating effect of the surrounding water. And the region’s deep, fast-draining soils are ideal for growing more than 30 different grape varieties. And thanks to 2021—yet another great vintage for northern California—now is the perfect time to explore Clarksburg’s exciting whites.
Find a bit of backyard bliss and enjoy this elegant Albariño on the patio, in the garden or wherever you can find your own corner of space in the sun. Its vibrant peach, apricot and citrus flavors make it a lovely aperitif, but it’ll be equally tasty with salads, white meats or seafood dishes.
If you’re a fan of Spanish Albariño (or crisp, fruit-forward whites in general), you’ll definitely want to taste this new, double-gold-medal release. Order your share today.
