2020 vintage. A blend of 70% Roupeiro and 30% Antão Vaz, vinified together in amphora by winemakers António Maçanita and Sandra Sárria. Unlike stated by one comment here, this is not oxidative whatsoever. Pear, quince, flowers and a hint of fresh mint. Medium-bodied with juicy white fruit, tight acidity, fresh herbs and very good mineral length. Abv. 12,5%. — 2 years ago

Fresh & juicy with crunchy black fruit and a doll, stony undercurrent. Plus just a hint of spice - allspice, cloves, anise, cinnamon. Lively & engaging.
Mid weight in the palate with bright juicy acidity, pure black fruit and slightly rustic yet v. juicy tannins. Fresh, juicy, very food friendly. Perfect match with steak frites! — 2 years ago

Deep vibrant ruby colour, very lively. Lots of ripe strawberry on the nose with a hint of earthiness. Moderately bold with oaky tannins. A little sweet with a touch of heat on the finish. Lingers on the palate. — 4 years ago

Very nice white wine from the Azores. Indigenous grape, Arinto, from the Pico area. Lots of unripe citrus peel and stone on the nose. Mouth filling and precise with excellent acid and a long finish. Expressive yet restrained. Great savory saline quality - a wine to be enjoyed over some time as it unfolds. Excellent with oysters and other seafood. — 6 years ago

Azorerna, wow! Köpte det dyraste som finns för att gå ”all in” vilket betalade av sig. Doftar inte så mycket direkt efter korken dragits ut, men kommer så småningom lite blommigt och med viss havsbris. Medelfyllig. Smakar oljiga oliver, knäck, gula äpplen och ett distinkt supermineraliskt salt avslut. 1413 flaskor totalt! — 8 years ago

Very cool and unique wine, nice to try it again. Pears, lemons, oyster shell, crushed rocks on the nose. Beautiful salinity on the palate. A little short and one dimensional but great@expression of terroir. reminds me of a Chablis. — 3 years ago

2018 vintage. White Alentejo blend (Roupeiro, Rabo de Ovelha, Antao Vaz, Tamarez, Alicante Branco and Arinto) by winemakers António Maçanita and Sandra Sarria. Old vines, whole bunch fermentation, no malolactic. Bright yellow. Spicy and floral with power and some complexity. Authentic and very good value. — 5 years ago

9.0

Volcanic Verdelho do Pico (different from the Portuguese mainland Verdelho, also known as Godello in Spain) from vineyards located on 3 different islands - Pico, Graciosa and S. Miguel- in the Azores archipelago. Virtually at sea level and unusually close to the Ocean, vines grow on very poor volcanic basalt soils, surrounded by traditional stone-walled “currais” to protect them from the extreme Atlantic winds. Salty and mineral. Thirst-quenching acidity. Passion fruit. 🌋 🌋 — 6 years ago

A very good Portuguese red with some nice fruit. Little bit tannic. I think some grilled beef would pair with it nicely. — 6 years ago
