One of the most compelling expressions of Xarel-lo in our experience!
Zárate wines demonstrate the Albariño’s aging capabilities, but this bottling is so delicious you’ll be hard pressed to keep your hands off your stash.

Perfectly balanced and absolutely delicious, von Winning’s Riesling finishes clean, fresh, and palpably dry.
FRANCE – WHITE
Refreshing and bristling with crisp, juicy citrus fruit, Carrel’s Jongieux offers glacially pure, low-alcohol Jacquère. Superb!
Lornet's Arbois clearly expresses its terroir and a shining example of why the Jura is a primary target on many a wine geek’s radar.
ITALY – WHITE
Simply delicious, the Falanghina expresses fresh lemon, lime, and tangerine fruits accented by nuances of white pepper, juniper, and smoky volcanic soil.
Masseria Li Veli has fashioned a smashing dry Verdeca. A must try!
