Albariño is hard not to love, and this is an excellent ambassador of the grape. Juicy pear, bright acid and a lick of salinity: all you need is fresh seafood and a summer's day.

Why do we love this wine?
That's right. This humble bottle of wine won the first prize at an Albariño festival judged by winemakers and experts from the famed Galicia region. It's no small honour, and it's certainly no small wine. This albariño, from the Rías Baixas subregion of Condado de Tea is named after the Puerta Santa, or “Holy Door” which is the most important access to Santiago de Compostela’s Cathedral. A mythical and special place - it’s not only the end of the famous Camino trail, but also the homeland of the country’s best white wine (made from albariño) and seafood - particularly shellfish. It’s getting into rich territory, with notes of honeysuckle and a great texture - so don’t be afraid to sauté those razor clams in heaps of butter with freshly chopped chives to compliment the subtle earthiness of the wine.
