Fâmega Vinho Verde Arinto Blend 2019

Nice wine..strong citrus, refreshing, not very sweet at all. Very smooth with hardly any acidity. Note: Our bottle is the Amarante grape.

Palacio da Brejoeira

Estate Bottled Monção e Melgaço Alvarinho

Delicious, great with fish. As someone not super familiar with Portuguese wines, I found this more substantial and complex than a typical Rias Baixas Albarino, still light and summery — 2 months ago

Quinta do Ermízio

A fantastic natural white wine at a great price. Sweet with a light spritz. Dry finish. — 4 years ago

Herdade Do Rocim

Reserva Vinho Regional Alentejano Red Blend 2020

Lots of tart red fruit, oak, cedar, tar, and pencil lead. Medium plus body, high tannins, high acid, high alcohol, and medium plus finish. Some tertiary notes, so drink now. Also recommend decanting (I know, a bit of a contradiction there). Reminds me a bit of an Argentina Malbec on steroids. — a month ago

Herdade do Mouchão

Mouchão Vinho Regional Alicante Bouschet 2011

Rich, ripe red and black fruit turning baked and dried, lots of musky smoke and mild meatiness. Red earth. Tannins resolved. Acid moderate. Yummy and distinctive. As it warmed up it relaxed in a nice way. — 4 years ago
