Community Tasting Note

  • BVal wrote: 77 points

    August 5, 2015 - Color: pale yellow with copious, long, spindly legs. Bouquet of grapefruit, spice, honeydew melon and pear. While the nose was fairly nice, the palate is an alcoholic mess. Overly big, blowsy, with a hot, acrid finish that obliterates any fruit, this is so not a real Verdelho. Go out at get some Spanish Verdelho. It'll probably be less expensive and almost assuredly a better wine.

    BTW, when was the last time you had a dry white with 16% alcohol???
