R. Parker (93/100)
The old-vine Albariño 2018 Sálvora was produced with vines planted over a century ago with ungrafted vines on fragmented granite, sand and chalk soils. It fermented in 600-liter oak barrels, where it matured for one year. There is a faint creamy touch from the barrels, which are around six years old, so I'm talking about something very subtle. It's quite round, a little wider than the others, powerful and with integrated acidity. It has clout and depth, concentration from the old vines. 2,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2019.
