review: Pleasant and mellow, this young white wine will be the perfect
accompaniment to all kinds of seafood, salads, mild cheeses, as an
aperitif or just by itself. The alcohol content of Famega is 9.5% which
makes it the ideal natural low calorie white wine. The grapes used in
making Famega are 100% Alvarinho (same as the Albarino grape over the
border in northwest Spain).
My Review: This wine was very crisp and refreshing. It tasted high in acidity. I detected floral notes on the nose, and hints of green apple in the taste. The wine was very tart and light. I did not taste this with food.
