Albariño hails from the north west region of Spain. The Margans were pioneering and the first to plant it in the Hunter Valley, where it retains varietal profile.

Margan, Breaking Ground, Albariño, Hunter Valley, 2018

Lemon drop, verbena, slightly green mushy melon, salted nutty popcorn kernel, lavender flower and yellowbox honey. Lip smacking refreshing acidity, with salty tangy lime and lemon, structured with an earthy mineral line and depth of flavour through the body. A quality wine.
