A deep, ruby-crimson color. Aromas of Mediterranean maquis vegetation with eucalyptus & pine needle, black plum & damson. Full & satisfying on the palate with ripe, fruits of the forest flavors, seasoned with peppery tannins.
The complexity of this wine fluctuates between its notes of apricot apple & citric fruit white flowers jasmine fresh-cut grass & fennel. Unctuous on the palate voluminous with a velvety sensation to complement its freshness & with a plethora of nuances.
This wine showcases the Alvarinho grape, capturing the taste of coastal Portugal in every sip. Creamy citrus oil, lime and yellow apple notes are nicely spiced and detailed with saline mineral and floral underpinnings through the long finish.
