2008 Yunquera Albillo Blanco Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y Leon
88 Points
($19) Greenish yellow. Spicy lime, pear and green apple aromas and flavors are complicated by dusty minerals and herbs. Concentrated and precise, with a talc-y impression and very good spicy cut. The lime note repeats on the nervy finish. - J.R.(International Wine Cellar Sept/Oct 2009)

2007 Yunquera Albillo Blanco
Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y Leon
$14
Pale straw color. Spicy lemon and lime aromas are dusted by talc and white flowers. Juicy citrus flavors give way to richer peach and melon with air while tangy minerals maintain focus. Finishes with a blend of nerve and pliancy, repeating the lemon and peach qualities. The albillo variety is indigenous to the Ribera del Duero area. -J.R. (International Wine Cellar 9/08)
