The colour of the JP showed a straight bright green-yellow hue. The nose had a lot of jasmine tea, fresh cut flowers, hints of petrol, a bit sweet’ish lemon impressions and quite a lot of nanna’s toilet cake perfumes. In my opinion a very strong and a bit unnerving nose! The taste was not my cup of wine! I got plenty of low grade lemon tea pellets flavours, some lemon based detergents, strong and over-perfumed lemons and a bit too much sweetness. A very strong, aromatic and slightly diffuse Moscateis impressions. Very challenging and pretty aftermath afflicted (headache). I guess a wine for lovers of very aromatic, citrus flowery and ‘grapey’ wines! The actual quality might be not that bad!

Importer tasting (@ PA): A dry white made of 60% Moscatel de Setubal and 40% Fernão Pires. The result is a refreshing and crispy Muscat tasting terrace wine.
