Fundação Eugénio de Almeida (Cartuxa)
Évora Branco Colheita
Green notes. A bit of a bitter finish. A good wine but, perhaps not the greatest expression on this vintage.

One of the best Portuguese whites out there.
So much is going on: green apple, peach, pineapple, oak, honey, earth!
At my favourite restaurant in Portugal.

A very serious wine that has tons of acidity and clarity. There's a richness here that can come from only one thing: extensive lees stirring... And sure enough that's what they do. Very good wine that reminds me a bit of some burgundy. #portugalwine #lees#sisab

Nov 19th, 2017Another subtlety fruit flavored wine of pear and apples and honeysuckle balanced by good acidity. A hint of herbs on the finish.

Jun 27th, 2017This drinks like a cross between aged German Riesling and young, oaky white Bordeaux. Petrol and lime meet pomelo and smoke. Makes me want to drink more Portuguese whites!

Nov 24th, 2015Tastes even better in Portugal. Made from indigenous white varieties Antao Vas and Arinto. Oak aged with nice richness with balanced acidity.
