About This Wine


Lazy Breeze

Albariño

Primarily grown on the Spanish coastlines, Albariño is a gorgeous and often underrated wine. Albariño thrives in climates with maritime influences–berries are extremely small but with very thick skins which suits the varietal’s preferred environment. Sunny days mitigated by fog and wind allow the fruit to fully ripen but also give time to develop concentrated flavors and bright acidity during the cooler temperatures. Coastal influences can often be recognized as a slight saltiness when sipped which balances beautifully with the somewhat oily and weighty texture of the wine. This particular wine is from the San Francisco Bay Area where cool nights and foggy mornings turn into bright days with warm sunshine. With ripe, yellow fruit tastes and lush floral aromatic notes, this wine has a rich and generous flavor profile. Perfect for pairing with seafood dishes of all kinds, this is the bottle you should grab for an al fresco dinner during a warm summer night.

Wine Region


California

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.

Tasting Notes


  • A figure representing the Pear tasting note. Pear
  • A figure representing the Lemon tasting note. Lemon
  • A figure representing the Peach tasting note. Peach

Expressive aromas of orange blossom and honeysuckle come forward on the nose. Rich flavors of juicy yellow peach, ripe yellow pear, and lemon zest shine and are complemented by bright zingy acidity on the finish. Every sip lingers thanks to the varietal signature oily and weighty texture.
