2023 Bodega Garzón Single Vineyard Albariño
£34.00
“This Single Vineyard comes from a selection of the highest vineyards (more exposed to sea breezes) on the winery’s property on the granite hills of Garzón. In this case, the soils are very poor, with low yields, which produce few highly concentrated grapes. If we add to all this a dry year, with low kilos per plant, we have this dense little monster, with a concentration that we had not seen in this wine. It is juicy, it has not lost its freshness, but the ripe and succulent fruit flavours seem to have gone to lift weights at the gym. Not to be missed.”
94 Points, Patricio Tapia, Descorchados
“Inviting nose, showing beautiful scents of citrus fruit, peaches, green olives and salty undertones. Zesty and saline on the palate.”

Product Description
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 Single Vineyard wines showcase the best examples of each variety grown at the estate. Their Albariño is aged on its lees in concrete tanks for three to six months and shows great complexity with layers of tropical fruit and floral undertones. It has a beautiful textural quality and richness on the palate which is complemented by a vibrant acidity and a refreshing finish.
