I tasted a very young but surprisingly harmonious and approachable 2019 Turonia, the pure Albari?o from Quinta Couselo in the Rosal subzone of Rías Baixas, a part that has less influence from the sea, as it's sheltered by a mountain range. The wine has less sea breeze character and more freshly cut grass aromas and river stones, going more toward the character of Ribeiro, clean and varietal. The palate is harmonious and seamless, with very good acidity and focused flavors with a pleasant bitter twist in the finish. Really very good. 30,000 bottles produced. It was bottled after six months with lees.

The 2016 Turonia offers a pure Albari?o profile from the Rosal with less balsamic aromas than the regular Quinta de Couselo. It has nice volume from five months with lees and a core of acidity that lifts up the finish. Quite remarkable. 20,000 bottles produced.

The 2014 Turonia is pure Albari?o from the Rosal subzone, produced in their usual way: cooling of the grapes, cold soak of the destemmed grapes, settling of the must and fermentation in stainless steel at low temperature, followed by eight months in contact with the lees before bottling. It's quite fruit-driven, as it happens with cold fermentations, a mixture of white fruit, spices and flowers. The palate shows some tropical flavors and more freshness than the Rosal blend. 20,000 bottles produced.

The 2013 Turonia is pure Albari?o form different vineyards, mostly on granite soils, but some also on slate. The must is fermented in stainless steel where it's kept for four months before bottling. The wine shows aromas of yellow fruit and some tropical hints with notes of pineapple that are perceived clearly in the palate. It has a supple mineral finish. 30,000 bottles
