Wow this gets petrol-y, like Riesling. Pretty delicious, Alvarinho with a touch of age. Anselmo Mendes is the man. — 12 years ago

A good and one of the best Alvarinhos available, made by the great Vinho Verde producer Anselmo Mendes. a fresh, dry crispy version with a slight concentration and oak character. Delicious stone fruits note with white flowers and spicy bite. 😋 — 12 years ago

What an absolute treat to enjoy. I was told this was the last '06 bottle available when I added it to my wine shipment a while back. 10 years old and this wine is a stunner. Beautiful deep ruby red color with a halo-like lighter ring around the edges. Decanted an hour and a half before trying, and then revisited multiple times over the next hour and a half. The nose is a great bouquet of mixed fruits that don't overwhelm you, and the palate is velvet like tannins that have benefited from the aging. The restraint the fruit shows at 10 years is applause worthy. @Glenn Hugo, thank you for making a wonderful wine. We were all disappointed to see this wine come to an end tonight and wished it would of kept flowing. — 10 years ago

Very easy drinking red with subtle complexity and nice acidity. Cherry and dark fruits with a hint of chocolate. Nothing special on the nose but can drink it like juice. Would absolutely buy again, especially given the price. — 9 years ago
