Good mouth feel. Good balance between mineral and floral. Low intensity but good balance on both.

This one fell a little flat. Light bodied, pale yellow-green color. Faint notes of Bartlett pear on the nose. Opens with distinct citrus on the fore palate , followed by stout saline when the wine was chilled. Salinity is lost as the glass warms. The finish varied between silky, nondescript flavor to bitter after the swallow.

2018v. Lovely alvarinho. Lots of fragrant fruit on the nose: peach, lemon, lime. On the palette, there's crisp and refreshing acidity. The finish has a minerality and slightly salty finish kind of like watermelon rind. Good with light fare and seafood. 12.5% ABV.

May 19th, 2020Almost savory. A little sour and just barely sweet. One of the most interesting wines I’ve ever had.
