February 17, 2013 - Lemony, almost a tart apple nose. Crisp with a light bitter edge to give it depth. Reminiscent of Asian pears. Drank it alone. Not viscous. When overchilled, it has a little minerality and a some salinity. Would pair very well with a lightly sauced white fish, oysters. Holds up over 2-3 hours.

December 15, 2012 - Very nice wine! One of our favorite Portugese whites. Goes with just about anything.

September 22, 2011 - simple wine showing cooked citrus and dried lemon peel notes. though only 12.5 abv, a surprisingly rich body which goes along wiht the stewed notes in the bouquet. fairly simple on the finish, just a lot of citrus.
