Compania de Vinos del Atlantico Albarino Columna 2025

$2399

Condado do Tea is the warm, inland corner of Rias Baixas, running along the Mino river on the Portuguese border, and it is where Albarino gets a little more flesh than the sea-facing bottlings most people know. Columna comes from pergola-trained vines planted in 1988 on granite with alluvial soil and some slate mixed in, sitting barely above sea level. The juice gets a day or two of cold maceration on the skins, ferments with indigenous yeasts and stays in stainless steel throughout, so nothing stands between the grape and the glass. Alberto Orte and Rodri Mendez make it by hand from harvest to bottle. At 12.5% it is an unpretentious, everyday white — the kind of bottle you open without thinking twice and finish over a plate of shellfish.

More about Compania de Vinos del Atlantico

DO Yecla is located in the southeast just south of Valencia. This is home to Monastrell, one of Spain's most famous varieties, which was once their pride of the region. These days the region is almost completely dominated by wines destined for the export market. An incredible 92% of wines produced in Yecla leave Spain and are produced “international” style . Wines made this way have too much fruit extraction, too much oak and too much booze to display any regional character.

There are few folks better positioned to help realign Yecla’s wine making priorities than Patrick Mata. His family, for generations before him, produced quality wines from all over Spain with the winery centered in Yecla. With the decline of quality wine production in the region, the wines became less desirable and the winery closed its doors in 1972. He now works with old vine Monastrell, some from vineyards that went into the old family wines, that survived being pulled out for Cabernet. He does not discriminate though and chooses to work with international varieties believing that they too are part of Yecla’s long and storied winemaking history.

Clams in white wine, oysters, grilled sardines, sushi, or chicken tikka masala.

Quince, lemon zest and jasmine with a stony edge. Dry and light-bodied, briskly acidic, finishing with a pleasantly bitter grip of citrus pith and pear skin.
