Abacela | Albarino | 2009 | 750 ML | Case of 12 Abacela’s north facing hillsides have proven ideal for Albariño because the cool autumn conditions there allow this beautiful grape to slowly ripen to perfection while retaining its lively acidity. This Galician style wine exhibits aromas and flavors of crisp golden apples, citrus fruits, fleshy peach, almonds, and delicate white flowers all carried on a frame that skirts the razors edge between creamy textures and steely minerality. We recommend drinking this wine within three years - earlier if you seek crispness, later if you prefer greater complexity. Dungeness crab and oysters are each a beautiful pairing, but this wine will embrace any fresh seafood entrée.
Abacela Tempranillo Umpqua Cuvee 2008 750 ML Case of 12. This fruit forward, less tannic and earlier maturing Tempranillo was delicious at bottling. The fruit sources include predominately our estate’s Fault Line Vineyards (85%) with the remaining 15% coming from McCorquodale and Delfino Vineyards. The beautiful aromatics, focused fruit flavors and lingering finish will continue to improve over the next four to six years.
