Beautiful pale yellow gold colour. Aroma similar to a chard with high minerality. Light citrus, a hint of lime on the nose. Maybe honeysuckle. Palate presents melon, peach, honeysuckle. Smooth silky finish.

Alvarinho with an especially pleasant and floral nose of jasmine, lychee, and granite. The palate is no less appealing, with tropical fruit flavors, excellent balance and length. This is also a great value. Get some of this.

Very nice, well balanced and much fuller than the vv's I'm used to. Apricot, plum, maybe some faint vanilla in there?
