2023 Bodega Garzón Reserve Albariño
£22.00
“The white wine with the highest production in the winery – and it comes from the 40 hectares that the winery has planted on its property in Garzón, about 14 kilometers from the sea. The year 2023 was dry and warm, and produced a small amount of grapes, which may explain the density of this vintage, the strength in the mouth, how juicy it feels amidst all those fruit flavors and that refreshing acidity, that gives nerve. A surprising wine that shows the talent of Atlantic Uruguay with Albariño.”

Bodega Garzón is a family-owned winery in Maldonado, on the Atlantic coast in southern Uruguay. They pioneered viticulture in this area over 10 years ago and have since become the standard-bearer for premium Uruguayan wines. In November 2018, their pioneering status was recognised by Wine Enthusiast with the ‘New World Winery of the Year’ award.
Bodega Garzón’s Reserve wines are modern and characterful expressions of single varieties made from carefully selected, hand-harvested grapes. The Albariño Reserve has aromas of white peach, citrus fruit and jasmine, and culminates in a long, refreshing finish. Unoaked, it spends about five months on the lees to obtain its beautiful, textural quality on the palate.
