Blend of Bical (80%) and Arinto (20%). Aromas of fresh pears, white flowers and thyme. The palate fills with flavors of unripe peach, apricot, lemon and minerals. Nice creamy (neutral oak?) texture with a long and lingering nutty finish. Bright and luxurious. Thanks for sharing, Ron B! — 6 months ago

This wine is delicous. creamy, full body but bright acidity..white peach on the fruit. Its so balanced and tight..nice finish..can probably cellar it but such a great crushable wine would be hard to do. Not to mention value for under 20 dollars — a year ago
So perfectly tart and buttery rich. A little fruitier sweet but it goes down dry! — 3 years ago
For those who like to venture off the beaten trail. Plays in the space of Chardonnay, Chenin, and Sauvignon Blanc, with new vibes, distinct combinations of flavors and aromas. Little hints of lemon and sugar coated dried pineapple cubes. A drop of pine and minty celery seed bitters. Creamy and acidic. Ripe big flavors with real intensity. — 3 years ago

Lovely Portuguese sparkler from the Bairrada AOC north of Coimbra, cepage is 5% Cercial, 30% Bical, 30% Maria-Gomes, and 35% Arinto. Loads of bubbles, not quite as fine or delicate as a fine Champagne, but really lovely for a midweek sub-$16 sparkler!! — 2 years ago
