2012 Niepoort Douro Coche Branco
Community Tasting Note
Francois Le Mouel Does not like this wine:
89 Points
Wednesday, 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.
