Cadre - Sea Queen - Edna Valley - Albarino

About This Item

Overview:The Edna Valley is truly a gem of an AVA for white wine varietals and deserves to be included in the broader conversation as one of the great white wine regions of the world. It lies just 5.5 miles from the edge of Pacific Ocean. Its maritime influenced extreme cool-climate and diverse volcanic and oceanic soils allow the incredible opportunity to showcase white wines filled with vibrant energy, minerality, and a whole lot of individual character. The Cadre wines embody the limitless possibilities of cool-climate white wines from the South Central Coast. We are bound by no laws or traditions, so we are able to harness our endless potential via some of the world’s most notable varietals: Sauvignon Blanc, Grüner Veltliner, and Albariño.

Description: On the palate, this wine is full of tang and energy. Our Albariño never lacks acidity. In fact, managing that high acidity presents one of our biggest challenges, yet that is our greatest gift. There is a rich assembly of citrus, white fruits, stone fruit and tropicals that are all corralled with bright acidity from start to finish. A lingering freshness and minerality cements Albariño as the one varietal that is queen of the sea.
