(at Weekend Wines Tasting, 25 Jan 2022)
Drinking Window: 2022 - 2024
A fresh blend of Avesso from 25-year-old vines and young Alvarinho vines. Green apple, grapefruit and preserved lemon aromas. There's a rounded creaminess to the palate balanced by brisk acidity, with plenty of citrus freshness, green apple crunch and a clean flinty note. Finishes crisp and fresh.
