Region:Minho
Country:Portugal
From one of the best - to my view - Alvarinho producers in Minho (and Portugal), this wine
is made from the oldest vines in their farm and is a close match to their Reserva - maybe just lacks some of
the aging potential the Reserva has, but still great value for the price.
Orange blossom and a slight tropical feel in the nose, complemented by a strong mineral background and some vegetable bitterness - extremely elegant and inviting.
Nicely structured in the palate, intense and long, it shows a very good acidity, with gentle tropical notes mingled with stronger citrus and mineral notes. Finishes very long with the citrus notes to the foreground. Really good balance between structure and freshness results in a very rewarding wine.
