There is lots of excitement over Albariño wines these days, yet few are as thrilling as this 91-point star from Norrel Robertson. Using grapes grown on superb granite soils in the heart of Rías Baixas, this is intense, elegant and stony lime fresh.

Go to any harbour bar in Galicia in northwest Spain and the locals will be enjoying a clean, refreshing Albariño. Pedra do Cribo is just that, but more finely honed. Lithe, citrus charged and beautifully aromatic, it’s a classic seafood accompaniment and is fast becoming the white to be seen drinking in wine bars from Soho to Sydney. If you haven’t tried this thrilling white, imagine the freshness of Sancerre with the aromatics of a Viognier, plus the minerality of fine Chablis, and you’ll be close. Pedra do Cribo is slowly fermented then aged on its lees (the sediment) for 18 months to develop richness and complexity. Intense stone fruit combine with a salty tang derived from the maritime climate. Serve as an apéritif or with seafood.
