About this Wine

Scott’s personal blend selection of botas from Bodegas Barbiana, Sanlúcar de Barrameda

"I started research in September 2000. We landed and sold our first cases in August 2001. September 1st 2020 through August 31 2021 is TSA’s 20th fiesta! We started TSA’s 20th anniversary celebrations with TSA Fino #1, Azahar, a barrel selection. We continue with the proud launch of Albero, the Barbiana solera blend.

A very fine nose of fir apple, crab apple, lemon balm, lemon drop, neroli, chalk dust. It’s floral from flor and noticeably ‘salino’ (salty). The chalk is mineral fresh, with a bit of peachy richness tucked inside, marrying perfectly with the ozone surf reach on the nose. It’s exactly mid-weight in the Manzanilla spectrum. Finishes soft but with some tang, like biting into an apple, the juicy openness run through and framed by salt, cabezuelas (spent flor bitters), acidity and an iodine point. There’s a hint of brown spice in the flinty crunch finish, which lingers beautifully.

Wines of Spain

With 2.9 million acres of land planted in wine grapes, Spain is the most widely planted wine producing nation and second largest producer in the world. Many styles of wine are produced in the country most of which are based on native grape varietals.

The two most famous regions are Rioja and Ribera del Duero for their Tempranillo production. Rioja Tempranillo (the classic) will be lighter and fresher with red fruit flavours as compared to those from Ribera del Duero that are often deep purple, higher in alcohol with more tannins and intense black fruit character. Rioja is also known for producing Garnacha (Grenache), as well as rich, nutty whites from the indigenous Viura varietal.

In the Catalonia region, Spain is recognized for making a sparkling wine in the traditional method but using native grape varieties. This is called Cava. Priorat, a subregion within Catalonia specializes in making still red blends of Garnacha, Carignan and often Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon in a bold and full-bodied style. Together with Rioja, wines from Priorat have achieved DOCa/DOQ status signifying their quality.

Sherry is Spain’s famous fortified wine which can either be completely dry, lusciously sweet or somewhere in between. This is made in the southern region of Jerez.

Other notable Spanish wine styles include: Monastrell (AKA. Mataro/Mourvèdre), produced in the Jumilla region and refreshing white Albariño and Verdejo from north western Galacia.
