Columna Rias Baixas 2013 Albarino (Spanish White Wine), $13.99-$16.99, 90+ points, poured a straw yellow color.
The aromas were pome blossoms and a lovely fresh squeezed lemon.
Light-bodied with good acidity and pure flavors of grapefruit, lemon zest, tangerine, a subtle floral component, and slight slate mineral notes.
Finished as it began, vibrant and exuberant, floral, citrusy, and with a sweet-spot 12.5% alcohol.
Paired well with a summery BLT.

Considering the price and quality of this white wine, if I wasn't into exploring wines, I'd wonder why anyone would need to drink anything else, except maybe Prosecco, Chenin Blanc, choice SB, and, well, I take it back!
