A sweet finish, nice length. Still dry. Nice stuff. Apricots like Sauvignon. Some wood. Good white.

Earthy smell, earthy taste. Low acidity, dry. Great flavour. First time having a Portuguese wine that isn’t port so far so good.

Soft tannins. Super dry. Needs more time in a cellar... and maybe more time back in the barrel.

It’s alright. Just alright. There’s something lingering about the aftertaste that doesn’t quite do it for me.
