Tim Atkin (MW) is probably one of the very best wine journalists in the UK – a very serious and passionate guy. I am very fortunate to personally know many of the top UK journalists, and so I can honestly say that Tim is very well respected throughout the UK trade.

At a recent tasting he kindly awarded our Castro Martin albariño 92 points, and wrote “Angela Martin’s wines seem to get better with every vintage and are now among my favourite Albariños from Rías Baixas. The combination of low yields, ageing on lees in tank for added weight and very pure, almost transparent fruit flavours is very enticing here: apple, pear and some quince with a hint of honey.”

This is high praise indeed, coming from Tim.
