The ULD (Ultimate Label Drinker's) Dinner (Imperial Treasure, Asia Square): An interesting wine - I thought it was a Castilla y León, but could not quite place it. The nose was a nice marriage of higher-toned aromatic aromas like gooseberries and little floral shades, with deeper, ripe notes of melons and white fruit. This led into a weighty, oily textured palate, where round, fleshy notes of pineapples and gooseberries filled the mouth on the attack, before the wine pulled off in an altogether more minerally finish, with more pear-like fruit flecked with a nice bit of spice and earth. Ripe, but balanced, this was a certainly an interesting Verdelho. Very decent stuff.

Slightly oily with salty shells atop white fruits and grape fruits. Rounded on the palate.

Tasty, full-bodied for a verdejo. Pear on the nose backed up by creamy elements of butterscotch and vanilla.
