James Suckling 92pt

This has toasty aromas of pie crust and subtle citrus. Albillo mayor is not very aromatically expressive. The palate is medium- to full-bodied and concentrated, with richness that expands on the palate. Drink or hold.

Tasting Notes

On the banks of the Duero, (900 meters above sea level) in small plots of calcareous soil, white grape vines grow intermingled with Tempranillo strains. This variety, called Albillo Mayor, was planted since time immemorial in our towns, as a blend variety, with which claret was obtained and which also served as a dessert for grape harvesters during harvest time.
