Astrolabe Kekerengu Coast Albarino 2021
This is Astrolabe winemaker Simon Waghorn's delicious take on Albarino and it's made from grapes grown in a quirky location, to say the very least. All grapes in this wine were hand picked from their coastal home at Kekerengu, on the coast south of Blenheim. It is the southernmost vineyard in the Marlborough region and only Astrolabe makes wine from the small vineyards planted there. This cool location provides slighter higher acidity and zestiness to the wines made from there.
Whole bunch pressing and fermentation on solids followed by lees aging provides this wine with depth and body, which balances the naturally high acidity that is innate to the Albarino grape - a native grape to north west Spain and Portugal and now at home in New Zealand.
Flavours in this wine are all about green apples and lemon with a green olive note on its dry finish.
This is the ultimate wine to drink with seafood on a hot day.
