At first I found this medium bodied, slightly creamy, with prominent stone fruits, white peach and cumquat, with a prominent minerality and slight notes of cheesecake on the nose. Now it’s emerging much more dry with air, still a long, mineral driven palate, still medium bodied, but beautifully balanced and definitely a contract to many California white wines when it comes to complexity and nuance. — 3 months ago
All about the nose on this. Compact, deep core of raspberry and pomegranate. Finish hangs — a month ago
Fruit and earthy aroma. Blackberry with plum and vanilla finish. Dense but not overwhelming. Low tannins and short finish. Would absolutely buy again. — 22 days ago

Exclusively from their vineyards in the northern part of Vinho Verde, Monção and Melgaço. I’ve been there! That’s where I accidentally got up two hours early cause my clock switched to Spain time and I thought that meant I'dn need to get up an hour early. Contacto has a little more skin contact than average, turning up with a slight texture and friendly bitter bite. On the nose, it’s fresh lemon zest, wet stone and whetstone, with a bit of white flower. The palate is utterly thirst-quenching, veering into dried apricot territory and a bit of (as I said above) fun bitterness countering the fruit. It all wraps up with a sluice of salinity. Fun, fun, fun! — 5 months ago

I love Vinho Verde and this was the kinda I drank around Portugal! It was very light and citrusy. The perfect summer wine even though it’s winter! — 10 days ago
