Lightning Rock Cross Border Collection Albariño Coyote Canyon Vineyard 2024
Horse Heaven Hills, Columbia Valley, Washington, United StatesThis is a juicy, easy sipping style albariño from Coyote Canyon Vineyard in the Washington Horse Heaven Hills AVA. The nose and palate are soft and round, with notes of pear, stone fruit, and a just hint of lees adding a creamy finish. It’s a bit low in acidity, but there is zero sugar, so it's not a real handicap. The fermentation was wild inside concrete eggs, followed by complete malolactic fermentation and extended lees aging for six months in concrete. I like this wine and would love to see it made with a bit more BC acid energy down the road. Try it with a grilled halibut and a fresh chopped fruit salsa.Tasted: 29 June 2025Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $28.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
