July 11, 2021 - Orange Wine Tasting Zoom session. Drank in Gabriel Standart.
Appearance is clear, pale intensity, lemon colour. Not orange at all! Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of citrus lemon-lime, lime zest, green apple, light sea-salt spray, stony minerality, steeliness. Youthful.
On the palate, dry, very high acidity, medium alcohol (12.5%), medium body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of dense citrus lemon, thick lime zest, concentrated green apple, salty saline, wet stony minerality. Leesy feels. Medium+ limey salty minerally finish.
Very good quality. Good summery drink with leesy feels. Ah ha! - 12 hours on skins, four months on lees. Drink fresh. -

April 12, 2021 - Excellent. The skin contact gives this just enough texture, while still retaining all the nervy Alvarinho structure and tension, Crisp, citrusy and minerally, but not austere.

April 1, 2021 - Quick taste, but yum! Peach and peach skin, ripe citrus, pineapple, flowers, herbs a touch of passion fruit. Tactile, chalky, great acid line, cuts and grips lightly. Long citrus, stone fruits and minerality. So good.
