Francois Le Mouel Does not like this wine: 89 points
October 7, 2015 - An good white, mineral, good acidity and medium+ lenght...unfortunately, not worth the price we paid at the restaurant ($250)...you can find the same quality for $30.

You're correct, this white is the equivalent of 50 Euros in our stores as well...but it's not worth the price! -

Should you need some advice on Portuguese white or red wines (or even Port), I'm glad to assist you. -
