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. 🌋 🌋 — 7 years ago
Super fruity. Red wine though no barrel ageing. — 9 years ago
A little creamy and nutty. Really delish. Leaning towards full bodied with soft acidity. — 11 years ago

A lovely aged white "entry level supposed to be but no really" of great style, biodynamic production and almost last vintage of winemaker António Carvalho, who past away in 2009 - a pleasant wine that you will not find easily, only in some very specialised wine shops :) — 11 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. — 6 years ago
