The
2021 Branco is a roughly equal blend of Encruzado, Malvasia Fina and
Verdelho, unoaked, very dry and coming in at 13.1% alcohol. Smoothly
textured, this still shows off fine acidity and freshness. It has enough
concentration so as not to feel thin, but the point here is freshness. It can
easily age a few years, perhaps more than indicated. The winemaker indicated
the 2010 is still quite alive based on recent tastes. It is a classic fresh
white with some distinction. Drink 2022 through 2031. — 89 PointsWine Advocate, Jul 29, 2022 |
