Grape

Albariño

Origin
Founded in 1986 in the Rias Baixas region of Northwestern Spain, Martin Codax produces wine from the aromatic white Albariño grape. Similar to Viognier, the light and refreshing style, with a hint of sweetness, provides a refreshing alternative to Chardonnay.
Taste
Delicate peachy aromas with hints of spice, herbs and traces of sweet fruits, a fresh and crisp palate rounded by hints of honey, peaches and stone fruits, a medium body and with a floral finish.
Enjoy
Enjoy over the next two years as an apéritif or with grilled lobster.

    Martin Codax

    This is a great bottle of wine to have in your cool box when visiting a Spanish beach. If you can't make it to a Spanish beach, a Welsh beach will do nicely.

    Galician Gold

    Superb fresh, dry & aromatic. I was not too impressed with a previous vintage- but this now comes with a screw cap -not cork as in description and the wine is all the better for it. Textbook Albarino at a fair price

    A cracking white

    A very easy to accept white that even those who are unsure about wine could approach!

Staff Reviews

  • The ideal alternative white wine

    "When you are after something a wee bit different...tired of tropical Sauvignons, oaky and buttery Chardonnay? Here is the answer! Lifted and perfumed aroma of peaches, pears, blossom with hints of citrus and flint. Warm fruit flavours, almost a hint of sweetness, a touch of minerality and spice. The wine is of medium weight, balance of fruit and acidity, very refreshing and easy drinking."

  • "Hailing from the northwest of Spain, this is unsurprisingly an awesome match for seafood and shellfish dishes. This wine has lovely peach and stone fruit aromas, reminiscent of Viognier, with a streak of minerality running through it which adds a refreshing edge. Its a great option when you're bored of Viognier or Chardonnay, but fancy a well balanced, rounded wine with richness of flavour."
