  July 23, 2012 - Alvaro Mendes does it again, the Contacto is an excellent Alvarinho with great balance, zingy acidity, minerals and lovely aromatics.

  July 18, 2012 - Smell: Green apple, lemon
  Taste: Lemon, yellow fruit, grass. The acid and the fruit is balanced. A refreshing, slender taste that works well on its own as well as with food.
  Second bottle, 9 june, 2018
  Deep Golden colour
  Expressive and mature Alsace-like nose with ripe, yellow stonefruit, honey and white flowers.
  Mediumbodied, oily and dense with notes of zest and pomelo. Good complexity and now with some additional sweetness, this bottle proved the cellaring capacity of the alvarinhogrape. However, the bitterness in the finish became a tad too much. 87-88 p.

  June 15, 2012 - - Light gold color and aromas of cut green grass. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of cut green grass with a medium body. Smooth texture.
