94 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "When I tasted this wine in mid-June, the nose of the 2024 Albariño was still too closed and a little reductive to show its true colors, but it was in the palate where I could see the harmony and balance of the year, a year with purity and elegance, with a perfect balance between alcohol and ripeness and freshness and acidity, with textbook parameters for good development of aromatics and flavors while keeping the spark from the granite soils. It's very Salnés. Some 90,000 bottles will be produced, but some wine is still to be bottled and kept with the fine lees in stainless steel. Drink 2025-2033. (07/24/25)."

94 points Tim Atkin, MW: "[13%] The Mendéz family's textbook Albariño uses grapes from a mind-boggling 164 small parcels in the Val do Salnés villages of Cambados, Castrelo, Meaño, Ribadumia and Sanxenxo. The kind of wine that makes you long for a plate of fresh seafood, it's racy, pure and superbly balanced, all citrus, lime and wet stones and impressive palate length. 2025-2032. (2025)."

91 points Virginie Boone (Jebdunnuck.com): "One of the standard-bearers of the appellation, the 2024 Albariño Do Ferreiro is also the producer’s flagship wine, blended from 164 plots over several hectares across the Val Do Salnés, the most important and historic subzone of Rias Baixas. Light-bodied, it offers sublime lemony and tangerine flavor and a grippy texture kept fresh and nervy from the lovely acidity. It’s a beautifully balanced wine that will continue to drink well another 6-8 years. Drink 2026-2034. (01/02/26)."

90 points Joaquín Hidalgo (Vinous): "The 2024 Albariño Do Ferreiro from Salnés, Rías Baixas, presents citrus and floral aromas, including tuberose that might be mistaken for hydrocarbon in this freshly bottled wine. Fresh, smooth and shaped by malic acidity, it leaves a subtle herbal trace on the finish. This is curious in character and simple in flavor. Drink 2025-2030. (09/25)."
