Granit Mineral Selection Monção e Melgaço Alvarinho 2020

Wow that nose! There is chalk and lemon peel, to that point that I could be thrown off-pace to Chablis here. There are some pear notes too that linger in the back. The palate is a joy... There is a massive acid backbone that makes it a very long wine. There is width and matter, giving it presence. There are lemon peel and pear notes all along, along with a chalky, dusty mouthfeel on the sides. The finish is long, extended, with pear notes and that slight lemon peel thing which goes away somehow in the end. That's clearly a very serious vinho Verde here! I'm a big fan — 3 years ago

Great notes DM. It is amazing that Portugal can obtain such chalky minerality to be reminiscent of Chablis. I will visit them in July.

Thank you @Martin Bergo ! The value of this is insane. To be honest it had been a long time since I last was that impressed/surprised by a wine.

Poema Sur Lie Alvarinho 2016

The wines of the Monção e Melgaço sub-region of Vinho Verde are a serious discovery. Deeply mineral, with layers of both classic orchard fruit and some tropical notes. Oak aging adds another dimension. Check these wines out! — 5 years ago
