The scarce Spanish Albillo Mayor grape produces fairly full, aromatic white wines. It is only found in the Castilla y León region, on a small scale. There, Albillo Mayor is often blended with other grapes, such as Macabeo. Only occasionally do you come across a wine made from just Albillo Mayor.
The Albillo often causes confusion. There are two: the Albillo Mayor and the Albillo Real. Not related, but in Spanish vernacular they are both simply called 'Albillo'. If it says Albillo on the bottle, it could be both, but it is probably the 'Real', which is much more common.
However, the Albillo Mayor is regarded as being of higher quality. It is grown on a small scale in Ribero del Duero in the Spanish Castilla y León.
