Pazo Cilleiro Albarino is a captivating white with remarkable depth and energy. Pale gold with greenish hints, it opens with crystal clear notes of citrus, white stone fruits, and delicate florality. On the palate, it's crisp and beautifully structured, the hallmark of fine Albariño. There is a clean, lingering finish that refreshes and satisfies in equal measure. Clearly a natural partner for seafood in all its forms: grilled white fish, oysters, mussels, prawns, langoustines, and sushi. It shines alongside paella, fideuá, and seafood-dressed pasta, and complements fresh salads with equal grace. Serve at 9–10°C to fully experience the elegance and vibrancy.
