This one is a bit of a surprise: I picked it up from Oddbins tonight on the way home, and it&#8217;s packed in a very old-fashioned way. But it delivers lovely flavours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Granbaz\u00e1n Etiqueta \u00c1mbar 2016 R\u00edas Baixas, Spain<\/strong><br \/>\n13% alcohol. With very old-school packaging in a tall bottle, the appearance of this wine is a bit deceptive, because it&#8217;s actually modern and thrilling. It has a lovely refined spicy quality under the fresh, delicate pear, apple and peach fruit. Made from free-run juicy only, this has a refined personality, and offers beautifully poised fruit, freshness and a mineral, spicy finish. Despite the delicacy, there is plenty of flavour here, and it has a long, tapered finish. Lovely stuff. 93\/100 (\u00a315.50 Oddbins)<\/p>\n<p>Find this wine with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wine-searcher.com\/index.lml?referring_site=WAN\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wine-searcher.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>ALBARI\u00d1O<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/spain\/a-remarkable-albarino-from-eulogio-pomares\">Eulogio Pomares Parcelarios (I) Carralcoba Albari\u00f1o 2015 Rias Baixas, Spain<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/spain\/albarino-series-2-granbazan-etiqueta-ambar-2016-rias-baixas-spain\">Granbaz\u00e1n Etiqueta \u00c1mbar 2016 R\u00edas Baixas, Spain<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/spain\/albarino-series-3-terras-gauda-o-rosal-2017-rias-baixas-spain\">Terras Gauda O Rosal 2017 R\u00edas Baixas, Spain<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The second wine in this series on Albari\u00f1o, that wonderful grape from northwest Spain and Portugal, is another from Rias Baixas.
