Wine & Spirits Review: (Score 92) A
blend of 40% Arinto, 30% Loureiro, 20% Trajadura and 10% Azal.
Full of fruit, a lasting
peach flavor targeted with laserlike acidity through the finish. It has the
bite of salty ocean air and a lot of zing. For langoustines.
My Review: Lots of oak and citrus flavors on the nose. It had a sweet mid-palette but a harsh acidic finish. It was a bit too sour for my taste. I am really surprised it was ranked a 92 because I didn't think that highly of it.
*Did not have with food
