Medium lemon. Med(+) aromas of lemon, grape, white peach, orange zest, grape, pineapple, almond, green apple, melon. Sweet, full body, med acid, high alcohol, med(+) finish. Feels a bit reductive. Aromatic and ripe. Some viscous texture. Tasty and well made, though bitterness from alcohol might stick out a bit. Drink now.

Undistinguished. Medium off-dry style with notes of white flowers and almonds with a warm spicy finish. Perhaps it should have been chilled more and certainly improved when significantly diluted with sparkling water. I won’t be trying this again in a hurry. CHP 82 pts

2016 Port Harvest Tour; 9/18/2016-9/25/2016 (Portugal): Very light straw in color. Light green apple and tropical notes. Tropical and light citrus on the palate. Medium-long finish with some slight spirit on the finish. This was a little sweeter in character that I was expecting, but a solid white.

Iberian Wine Dinner (Milford, CT): Used for a white port tonic, but still quite nice by itself. A bit on the drier style, with lovely yellow fruits and citrus zest. Correct acidity.

(NV Cockburn Porto Fine White Port) Light medium golden yellow color; fresh apple, cling peaches in heavy syrup, dried apricot nose; tasty, medium-plus bodied, cling peaches in heavy syrup, apricot, almond paste palate with balancing acidity; long finish (tasty chilled, on its own, or as a summer cocktail with tonic, mint & lemon: 19% alcohol; twist off plasticine cork)
