teachertraveler8, I'm sure if you asked at your favorite local wine/liquor store (especially a nicer one that has a wide variety of wines and spirits from all over), the employees could find it for you and/or make a special order for you. There is a website that helps one look for specific wine in a specific state called
www.wine-searcher.com. According to a quick search I did, you can definitely find albarino at a store called Village Corner in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
If worse comes to worse, you can certainly find it the next time you come to Chicago as there is a large local chain called Binny's (
www.binnys.com) that carries it as well as many other Spanish wines.
