Quinta Couselo 2006 Turonia Albariño (Rías Baixas)
- $20
A richer-styled wine with toffee, butterscotch and dusty white-fruit aromas. It’s not oaked but it seems leesy, with subtle apple and pineapple flavors. Nicely textured but softening as we speak. Easy on the finish, with moderate length. Drink now.

Quinta Couselo 2005 Turonia Albariño (Rías Baixas)
- $20
May be getting old but still welcoming and mostly fresh. Citrus, melon and mango flavors are flush and clean, and the finish is racy and fluid. Normally Albariño is a one-year wine, meaning you should drink it in the year immediately after harvest. Here’s an ’05 that’s hanging in there and still showing kick. Drink now for best results.

Quinta Couselo 2007 Albariño (Rías Baixas)
- $22
A little funky and salinic at first, but otherwise it’s normal Albariño. The flavors run toward tangy apple and green fruits, while the feel is lemony and edgy, with a light, pointed finish. Good but not overly expressive or deep.

Quinta Couselo 2008 Turonia Albariño (Rías Baixas)
- $22
Peach and oily iodine aromas are a red flag that something is amiss. The palate confirms it with a vinegary wave riding on top of tart apple fruit. And the feel is kind of spritzy and funky. vintages.
