When you talk about consistency and excellence in Spanish winemaking, one name stands out to me above all. The Torres Family has been a staple in the region for centuries and their holdings are insane. But their relentless pursuit of excellence and commitment to quality is why they’re consistently Drink International’s ‘most admired wine brand in Europe.’
They also make some of my favorites values, from the Secret del Priorat to the Celeste ‘Sur Lies’ Verdejo to today’s ‘Pazo de Bruxas’ Albarino. These wines represent some of our most requested wines, which is pretty considerable when you take into account that they’re all Tuesday nighters.
The Pazo de Bruxas is a particular Spring classic. It comes from the red-hot coastal region of Rias Baixas that is responsible for most of your favorite Albarinos. These wines aren’t light, fruity numbers; they’re more crisp and minerally, with a creamy middle and a lot of depth for a white wine.

It’s an electric white Burgundy, with a limestone-laced aromatic profile of green apple, pear and hazelnut. Refined and high-toned, the pure, delicious fruit that is a hallmark of this terrific vintage, finishes long and fresh, with a mile-long mineral streak.
From just west of Sancerre, Vincent’s vines are tended organically in flint-laden, calcareous soil which lends a great brightness to the wine. The wine is crisp and aromatic Sauvignon, and is a superb choice for a “cocktail” wine, as an aperitif or to accompany just about anything from sea.

“The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard marks the beginning of winemaker Joe Nielsen’s tenure at the winery. Pouring a medium yellow with a light golden hue, it’s most reserved of the flight aromatically at the moment, with yellow chamomile flowers, ripe peach, beeswax, and white flowers. Full-bodied, it retains excellent tension and focus on the palate, with apricot, orange zest, and a savory finish with a bit of spice. I suspect this will come around and open with time. Drink 2024-2030.” -Jeb Dunnuck
The newly released Riesling Feinherb 2021 is a lively, juicy wine with an elegant bouquet of minerals, wet stone and ripe fruit. On the palate, the wine’s slight off-dry component is beautifully balanced by the steely acidity typical of the Mosel. Because this is freshly released, the fruit is vibrant and succulent and it comes in somewhere between off-dry and semi-sweet. It’s a great example of Riesling, especially at the price.
