Tasting note

As I've previously written, everyone seems to want a slice of Vinho Verde these days, including this well known Douro producer. It's a bright and breezy fresh white which I reckon would appeal to Muscadet fans who fancy something a little more perfumed. The Loureiro component brings attractive sweet talc notes to nose and palate as well as a limey dash of acidity, which lends animation to its rounder pear/pear skin fruit. Super drinkable. Very well made. (Sarah Ahmed, thewinedetective.co.uk, March 2, 2012)

Fresh and fruity, with notes of pineapple, peach, and lightly floral.
