Burgans Albarino 2007

• Light & Crisp: Light to medium bodied wines that are high in acid and light to medium fruit. Typically no oak.
• Fruity & Smooth: Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
• Rich & Creamy: Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.

"The 2007 Burgans Albarino is light gold-colored with a sprightly nose of mineral, spring flowers, and lemon peel. Ripe, balanced, and concentrated, this is an ideal match for flaky fish courses. Drink it over the next 1-2 years. Burgans is a custom cuvee made for importer Eric Solomon. While it’s not the best Albarino on the market, in terms of bang for the buck, it has no challenger."
-Wine Advocate

Luciano Almoedo remains the winemaker at this prestigious estate, producing pure Albarino bottlings with lovely aromatics and precision. The use of wood is definitively eschewed at the Bodega in order to preserve the natural lift and minerality of the grapes. As such, the wines are fermented and aged in stainless steel with light lees stirring. The wine is blended by Eric Solomon, working in concert with the property, and is bottled in the spring after harvest.
