Reserva Douro White Blend

Touch of sweetness reminiscent of something Alsatian - a great wine for sipping and aperitivo alike. Pears and honey with a good hit of acidity.

Buttery. Apple. Pear.

Oak.

So good. So so good.

A big white with oak notes and a bit tannic. Quince and lime. A Robert Parker fav. Not a fan.

If I am not going to open this on Christmas Eve, what am I waiting for?

Pineapple, nut, high acid. can age 5-7 years, 7 months in French barrels. Robert Parker 92 pts,

White wine, not red

Needs strong enough company/food

Smells like unripened honeydew. Grassy. Hints of minerals. Love it.

Somewhat typical modern white wine. Fruity yeast aromas and plenty of ripeness

Magnum...rich acidity, pear
