ALBARINO 2024

November 2025 White Wine of the Month
Albariño (pronounced alba-reen-yo) is a lively and expressive white wine grape originating from the Iberian Peninsula, most famously from Galicia in northwest Spain and the Minho region of Portugal, where it’s called Alvarinho. This spirited varietal has found a happy home in Lodi, California, where warm days, cool Delta breezes, and dramatic day-to-night temperature shifts create ideal growing conditions. These factors help preserve the grape’s natural acidity and aromatic vibrancy, resulting in wines bursting with citrus, stone fruit, and crisp apple flavors, often kissed with a hint of oceanic salinity.

We are delighted to share our first-ever vintage of Lynfred Winery Albariño, 2024, a bright, refreshing expression of this remarkable grape, crafted with elegance and zest.
