"Not a fruity albarino, but rather more serious, with a prominent, briny, sea salt note, plus oyster shells and a touch of white blossoms. Chalky and more closed and linear than the Pazo de Seoane, with a focused, saline finish. Pure and gastronomic. A blend of albarinos from O Rosal and Salnés. Drink now."

"The 2023 Albariño Lagar de Cervera was sourced from Rosal and Salnés. It offers enticing aromas of pear, green apple, rose, orange blossom and white peach. Smooth and expansive on the palate, the 2023 boasts fine tension that stretches out its fruit-driven, delicate flavors. This is a primary yet complex Albariño."

"Lagar de Cervera's biggest-volume Albari¤o uses grapes from 35 different parcels in O Rosaland the Saln,s Valley, which provide texture and salinity, respectively, according toJulio S enz. Made in substantial volumes of 200,000 bottles this has attractive citrusand tutti frutti flavours, an undertone of stony minerality and a bright finish. 2024-27."

"This light-straw-colored wine has a nose of mango, pineapple and just-picked roses. A nice floral note underlies toasted pineapple, white-peach, herbes de Provence and roasted fennel-bulb flavors. A soft note of sea spray remains on the taste buds alongside shimmering acidity. Editors' Choice. —M.D."

"Floral, honeyed, creamy nose with hints of saltiness. Succulent on the palate, full of energy, juicy and lemon, green apple fruit. Layered with green herbs, raspberries, and passion fruit. Loads of aniseed on finish."
