Even though it might seem a bit simple compared to some more expensive bottles from Anselmo Mendes, this wine provides excellent value. Crisp and fresh, with decent minerality. Textbook vinho verde for me.

Pale yellow and largely clear in the glass. The nose is very lemon-forward, with hints of green apple and grassy notes. On the palate it’s like a lemon tart, plus some crisp pear and melon flavours, and vibrant acidity balancing a light sweetness. The wine is very refreshing and mouth watering, perfect for a hot day.

Lovely round texture (almost like glycerol) with notes of green olive and bright herbaceous noted fruits. Long finish for the price and fresh. Drank this sitting in the sun watching the cricket and a good time was had by all!

YS's wedding after-party: Skin contact that gave it a rounder texture but also made the fruit less expressive. Got better with air, more complexity than the Antigos but less pleasurable so I preferred the entry-level Antigos.

Drinking with friends X - The world (Bellaria (Rn)): Giallo paglierino lucente. Naso aromatico, con evidenti note minerali. Frutta gialla matura. In bocca mostra una gran freschezza e mineralità, bilanciate dalla struttura nonostante la gradazione alcolica debole. Chiusura un pò corta.

Pale straw color, bright and vibrant. Fuzzy tangerine aromas like a tart tangerine sorbet, with other citrus like grapefruit and hints of lime, with a little crushed rock, white pepper and jasmine. Racy and on the palate with round fresh fruit and further secondary notes of pepper and mineral. Fleshy medium body and with bright cut and with dry length on the finish.

Aromas of peach skin, sweet peach candy, lime and tropical fruits, lifted and fresh on the nose, such gorgeous purity, hints of herbs and flowers... juicy, then pleasantly tart and mineral, just a bit of grip and pithiness. Lovely Vinho Verde Alvarinho. I would drink it over then next few years, but this may be worth following longer than that.

Fresh, fruity and mineral. Short ending. A nice expression of the Vinho Verde appellation

White peach, citrus, melons and a slight hint of minerals. crisp and refreshing. Not a lot of notes from skin contact... very clean and focused.

Nose: Soft fruit and mineral. White chocolate, raspberry, peach, vanilla.
Palate: Quite high acid on the entry, fruit comes mid-palate. Lemon, some green apple. Short aftertaste. Does better with food.
