Description
Nautilus Estate Albarino, Marlborough, New Zealand, 2022
Grape: 100% Albarino, certified sustainable growing, machine picked/destemmed, fermented in stainless steel tanks with a short lees ageing.
Nautilus Estate was established by the Australian Hill-Smith family in 1985 when there were only 80 wineries in the whole of New Zealand.
This is a limited edition, single vineyard wine. Albariño, one of the most distinctive varieties from Spain, is a recent introduction to the pristine wine growing region of Marlborough.
On the nose, it shows fragrant white peaches, white florals, with hints of spicy ginger and preserved lemons. The palate is flavoursome and fleshy with a refreshingly zingy, saline finish.
Awarded Silver Medal in the 2022 National Wine Awards of Aotearoa New Zealand.
Also recommended by Anna Krebiehl MW in her recent New Zealand article in Decanter, January 2023.
Drink with fish & seafood dishes, particularly pancetta-wrapped scallops with saffron and herb risotto.
