Very interesting white and more body than expected. Even my wife liked it!

Dinner with friends tonight, light notes if any.

Limestone, green apple, sea spray, perhaps light-sweet oak. A great Portuguese white, years to go!

Oak nose. Some minerals. Wafting kind of non oak scents, thin, innocuous and bland. Some citrus. Balanced.

Such an interesting wine. Great salinity and stone fruit. Needs a bit to unwind but can compete against any mineral driven white Chardonnay or similar wine.

Limpo, médio corpo (especialmente pra um Douro), com um toque de frescor. Falta-lhe uma acidez mais aguda e maior persistência na boca

White pear, pebble stones and citrus in the nose, palate very fresh citrus and orange medium to full body. The finish with a present saltiness, great wine again. Love the white wines of seabed

Multi-varietal blend, majority Rabigato. Lemon, orange and stone fruit on a tornado of minerals. Long finish, complex and luxurious. Reminds me of good loire chenin.
