I have no idea if that's a high rating of if it's one of those scales where you need to get above 95% to be any good.

I'd just found that same link myself, Jno.
It's the overall star rating which is the best guide there, with 4 stars being damned good for wines around a tenner, so 4 stars for a wine at £4 (or even at the full price of £6) is exceptional.
Albarino is a lovely grape, which is the most commonly grown white-wine variety in Spain (apart from in the Rioja region, where Viura reigns supreme) but surprisingly little known elsewhere. The wines it produces (especially from the west of the country, as with Rias Baixas) are dry but not short on fruit.

The Pedro Jiminez is lovely, I agree, Mikey. (I'm down to the last bottle of the case I bought).
It's odd that Spanish wine-makers, who use it to produce sherry, have never used it for white wines (or certainly not in any great quantities), whereas South American vineyards use it for the lovely apple-flavoured wine which we both enjoy.
