  January 6, 2016 - Wow, pushing 8 years and this still "sings". Liquid gold in a glass!! Crisp, clean with plenty of youthfulness. Peach/Apricot dominate the nose, with subtle hints of lemon and melon. Great mouthfeel, almost cleansing as it swirls around the taste buds. I'd pair this with seared scallops, sea bass or something similar.

  January 21, 2011 - I've got peaches, apricots, melons and very nice scents of lime pie on the nose. On the palate, it has creamy texture, very nice acidity with medium-long aftertaste. This is really good wine. Delicious! Recommended! 90+

  September 14, 2009 - After drinking almost a case of this over the past year, I remain a fan of this crisp, complex, mineral-tinged Alvarinho. Good body, almost a hint of lees, with lovely lemon, melon and pear flavors. Good length and superb acidity, which makes it play nice with seafood.

  August 18, 2009 - Another consistant performance. Crisp, tangy, lip-smaking alvarinho. Good complexity and length for the price. Great with seafood.
