(91 Points: Wine Advocate) The 2005 Xarel-lo (100%) comes from 75-year-old vines. It is medium straw in color with a splendid nose of mineral and resiny elements and a fruit cocktail of flavors (pear, green apple, lemon/lime) on the palate. The texture is supple and the finish is clean, long, and pure with just a touch of sweetness. This unique effort is a sensational value.
