Not a variety I've come across solo before but, dear God, its absolutely perfect for this. Razor edged floral delights wafting into deep fruity satisfaction. Its not all limes and lemos, peachier more tropical fun here (its hot in the Douro, makes sense). Ahe has provided a little wood and bread to the profile, itll go on for a good decade more. Really odd that this isn't better known. It's just awesome. — 10 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 — 7 months ago
I don’t recall coming across a Portuguese white that’s so ripe and full. Nose of lime, orange peel, peach, pear, honeysuckle, hint of vanilla and spice. Round and viscous on the palate, but there is enough acidic lift. Drinking like a well made Viognier.
A blend of Gouveio and Viosinho, 2 varieties commonly used for white port. — 10 months ago

Primarily Vioshino with some Robigsto, Codega, Gouveio and Arinto blended in. Bright golden straw color. Aromas of green apples, pears and white flowers. Same green fruits on the palate with hints of spices. A definitive mineral note on the finish. Medium bodied and a slightly (neutral oak?) creamy texture. Long and intense finish. Bright acidity and quite fresh tasting. Thanks for opening this one, Ron B! — 2 days ago
