I think the 2014 Albariño Selección de Añada could be the finest vintage of this characterful long-aging Albariño from a year with a more moderate 13% alcohol and very high acidity (and low pH) that make the wine fresher and more vibrant. It is developing very slowly and showing quite young after it spent over 30 months with lees in 1500- and 3000-liter stainless steel tanks. It has a pale color and an elegant nose with notes of freshly cut grass white flowers and wet granite. The palate is vibrant with effervescent acidity and it has a long dry and tasty finish with an austere sensation far away from the tropical notes of some past vintages. This is superb and should continue developing nicely in bottle. Bravo! It wasn't bottled until April 2023 and 14000 bottles were produced. Pazo de Señorans keeps working toward more sustainability in their vineyards not a small task as they control 43.33 hectares 21.5 are their property and the rest from 66 families. Production fluctuates between 250000 and 295000 bottles. Published: Nov 16 2023
