Smells like a musty washcloth but tastes great! Nice and dry.

As a lover of Portuguese wines I was excited to give this white blend a try, but it ended up being supremely disappointing. It starts with an offputting nose with hints of peach mixed with a strange wet mustyness. The pallate is a slight improvement but has a bracing acidity with notes of overipened lemon and wet riverstone. Best when ice cold, but personally I will be relegating the rest of the bottle to cooking wine. Another swing and a miss for Winc wines... ($13) [4/17/20]

Sweet, with just a hint of dryness. Greater impact on the palate than on the nose. Would definitely drink again.

Nice dry white blend alternative to Vinho Verde from Portugal. Smooth medium light body, light acidity. Nothing too complicated with flavors. Tiny bit of citrusy lemon and white pepper hints. Overall a good dry white that would go great with fish. Trying this some grilled tilapia and its pairing nicely.

Really nice Sauvignon Blanc style wine. Crisp, refreshing, but bold flavor, with lots of fruit. Not to long on the palate though…, Tasted 11 April 2022

Nice, some slight peach and perhaps grapefruit. Goes well with cheese and crackers, but have to be careful not to overshadow with strong food flavors

This was good but not my favorite because it was extremely acidic and pungent in flavor.
