Artwine Spanish Queen Reserva Albariño

Artwine Spanish Queen Reserva Albariño 2023 from the Adelaide Hills offers a richer take on this Spanish variety, combining fragrant orchard fruit with tropical generosity and layered texture. This expressive Albariño balances its fuller Reserva character with vibrant acidity, making it an enticing choice for lovers of substantial, food-friendly white wines.

Ripe green pear, fresh apple and sweet white blossom mingle with freshly cut cantaloupe, opening onto pineapple, feijoa and mango-nectar flavours. Artwine Spanish Queen 2023 Reserva Albariño carries that generous fruit through a long palate, with subtle cumin, bay leaf and rosemary adding a distinctive savoury flourish to the finish.

Serve with butter-poached prawns, roast chicken with rosemary or pan-fried snapper with a creamy lemon sauce. These suggested pairings complement its generous texture while allowing the refreshing acidity to shine. For a vegetarian match, try roast pumpkin with sage butter and toasted almonds, echoing the wine’s richness and herbal complexity.
