Vinus Paulo Machado Açores Verdelho
Açores, Portugal
Medium bodied with a vibrant golden yellow color. The nose is very prominent, with both beautiful prominent salinity opening into baked notes of glazed doughnut, amber, candied pecans, cumquat and lemon preserves. The palate is very different, with a light acidity and prominent yellow fruit notes especially ripe lemon. The flavor then evolves into something both nuttier and more vegetal with a loooong finish that lasts forever with a freshness, citrus and minerality that comes from a volcanic island wine. Perfectly paired with fresh poke!
