Critic scores
No critic score is published for this bottle that we can cite with a reviewer, a vintage and a review year, so none is shown. The rating in the header is our own.
In the glass

Citrine with straw tints: lime blossom and orange flower over peach, mango and papaya, with a velvety, mineral palate and a long refined close.
What it pairs with
-
Poultry in a rich sauce
The estate names birds and unctuous sauces for this bottling; the wine has the volume for both. -
Intensely flavoured fish
The producer specifies fish of strong flavour rather than delicate white fish. -
Cured cheeses
The estate lists queijos curados; the wine's acidity keeps them from coating the palate.
