Benito Santos 2008 Terra de Cálago Albariño (Rías Baixas)
  1. $20
Opens with floral aromas and transitions to a polished but narrow palate of green apple and lemon. Quite apple-oriented and tight in style, with a tangy, angled, monotone finish.  — M.S.  (11/1/2009)

Benito Santos 2007 Igrexario de Saiar Albariño (Rías Baixas)
  1. $24
Starts with promising peach and melon aromas, but the palate is rather abrasive and aggressive, with generic citrus flavor and a pithy finish. A rough wine for Albariño.  — M.S.  (11/1/2009)

Benito Santos 2006 Pago de Xoan Albariño (Rías Baixas)
  1. $33
Oxidized and fading, with leftover pear on the nose. The palate has residual acidity but the fruit is short on flavor, while the finish is briny and citric.  — M.S.  (11/1/2009)
