A mutiple gold medal winning and strong candidate for South American brand of the year, the wines from Bodegas Garzon are simply stunning. With vineyards planted only fifteen years ago, Garzon has picked up numerous Wine Spectator Top 100s and was voted New World Winery of the Year by the Wine Enthusiast magazing, after they attracted top winemaking talent Alberto Antonini. Founder Alejandro Bulgheroni who also has vineyards in Napa Valley, utilizes big name consultants like Philippe Melka and Michel Rolland. If you've never enjoyed a Garzon Albarino before, you're in for a real treat as you're immediately met by aromas of freshly sliced lemon and white flowers matched by the fruit intensity reminiscent of a Loire Valley Chenin Blanc. Like a great Vouvray, these wines have a ton of personality and can only get more interesting with a little age.
"Very attractive aromas of sliced peaches and melon follow through to a medium to full body with a creamy texture and a fruity, almost savory hint at the finish, together with lots of pineapple and melon. Best vintage ever produced." The Wine Buyer, 93 Points
