Alveirão Sociedade Agrícola do Vale Godinho
Maximo's Vinho Branco Fernão Pires Blend
Tejo, Portugal
Great texture, phenolic and lengthy. The bitterness and grip plays well with the integrated oxidative notes that arise from this wines upbringing and bottle age. Sort of reminds me of a more mild Juraçon blend in regards to the phenolic content and aromatic brightness. 50 Fernão Pires, 25 Arinto, 25 Malvasia Fina e Rabo de Ovelha. 24-36 mo elevage.

Didn’t love this. Odd blend. Can really feel the 14%. Creamy and almost off dry feeling. Just doesn’t come together.

Sep 17th, 2023Quite an interesting Portuguese white blend. A bit amber in the glass, decent weight and some texture. Medium finish, medium acid. But the fruit flavors are a bit unusual - less white fruit and a bit more metallic / amber notes. Interesting.
