Is this as good as Albariño gets? Possibly. Intensely citrusy with aromas of tangarine and lime, which develops on the palate to softer, rounder fruits like peaches and mango. Taut and racy with a saline backbone and a lingering finish, this is a very classic Rias Baixas Albariño. Stunning alongside pasta and fish dishes.
Pazo Señorans is one of DO Rías-Baixas’ leading producers.
The influence of Marisol Bueno and Javier Mareque on the founding and development of the DO Rías-Baixas and its primary variety Albariño can be traced back to their purchase in 1979 of an ancient 16th-century country estate, its kiwi orchards, and old-vine Albariño vineyards. Located in the town of Meis, Pazo Señorans lies close to the sea on acidic, sandy soils created by the natural decomposition of the granitic bedrock below. Early on, they recognised the potential of Albariño and were instrumental in the creation of the DO just a decade after they arrived in Meis. The wines from this Estate demonstrate above all the ageing potential of Albariño that no other producer can mimic.
Press Review:
Colección is always released with some bottle age and uses grapes from vineyards with less Atlantic influence. Showing the subtle bitterness that's a feature of many Albariños, this has aromas of beeswax and wet stones, impressive backbone and concentration and flavours of greengage and orange zest. 2024-28 - 93 Points, Tim Atkin, 2024.
