2022 Nanclares y Prieto Dandelion Rias Baixas Albariño
Alberto Nanclares and Silvia Prieto in Cambados marked a massive shift in my understanding of descriptors like "crystalline" and "acid-driven" when it comes to the Spanish white wine category.
Like Dauvissat's La Forest in Chablis, there's an element of clay in the soil here (mixed with decomposed granite) that gives these wines more texture and breadth on the palate. Nanclares y Prieto produces a powerful and saturating style of Albariño still founded upon a fresh streak and salty, long finish.
