Anderson & Marsh 2023 Parell Albarino – Gold – 95 points

Albariño gets the deluxe treatment and that’s a ‘Wow!’ Each vintage sees these two makers excel themselves with the Spanish grape, reaching down deeper into its character to extract layer upon layer of complexity. Preserved lemon, grapefruit pith, lime zest, apple, beeswax and peach – a rich tapestry of scents, flavours and textures – are set against an assertive acid backbone. That saline, mineral kicker of a finish is gold.
