Vinanmeldelser

Alvarinho med et stikk er uvanlig, det samme er en Vinho Verde som har blitt lagret ett ekstra år før lansering. Vinen fungerer ikke helt fordi den har mistet sin fruktighet og utviklet en sterk pepp…

Dette er en moden, fruktfokusert vin. Den har solbær og en tiltalende syrlighet. Den mangler tilsynelatende strukturen og den faste teksturen man forventer av en Douro-vin, så den kan drikkes nå.

A fruity, fresh and crisp wine, this is given some weight by the inclusion of Chardonnay in the blend. It has an attractive texture, and the lemon and grapefruit flavors dominate.

Normally grown in the Dão region, this grape needs poor soil to flourish. On its own, it makes a powerfully fruity wine packed with red fruits and some flavors of dark chocolate. The acidity is inten…

Crisp apples, touched with some sweetness, but finely clean and fresh, this is a great apéritif style of Vinho Verde, finishing with just a sparkle. Screwcap.

A full wine, balanced with an attractive citrus character and some creamy texture. There is also an edge of tannin that makes it a good, fresh, food wine.

This is a soft, fruity blend of Roupeiro, Rabo de Ovelha and Fernão Pires. It is ripe, full of apple and crisp green fruits, shot through with acidity. Drink now.

The short lees aging has allowed this wine to ripen and fill out. Along with the citrus acidity, it has plenty of fresh apple fruit and a zesty texture. Drink now.

A crisp and fruity blend of Douro grapes, this is packed with raspberry fruitiness, offering delicious acidity at the end. The wine is dry and ready to drink.

Made from 100% Castelâo, the local grape of Setúbal, this wine is attractively fruity, with a crisp texture. Warmer, ripe red-berry fruits contrast with the acidity, leaving a balanced wine that is r…

This blend of Touriga Nacional and Cabernet Sauvignon is soft and ripe, with a good sense of structure and fruitiness. Rounded and with acidity as a counterweight, the wine is ready. Drink now.

This wine is earthy, with a yeasty edge. It offers plenty of Touriga Nacional's perfumed fruit although this is masked by a barnyard character that needs to blow away. The wine requires another year…

Initially lean, but that's partly due to its youth. There is also fine, juicy fruit, pierced through with acidity, but offering tense tannins and some dark plum aftertaste.

Spanish producer Vicente Gandia has made a foray into Portugal with this ripely fruity and soft wine. It is fresh, herbal and spicy with attractive red berry fruits. It's been made to be drunk young…

Named after the range of mountains close to the Roquevale winery, this wine is ripe, soft and offers an attractive series of red fruits and rich tannins. Drink this wine now.

Lemon and raspberry flavored wine with crisp acidity and a tight, mineral texture. It has just a hint of tannin and a squeeze of lime at the end. Drink now.

This producer, based in the Lisboa region, has branched out into the Alentejo to source this rich, generously ripe wine. With its full-bodied plum and spice flavors, it is soft with a light touch of…

A light and fruity wine that is deliciously crisp with raspberry flavors and is nicely cut with acidity. Drink now.

This is a highly perfumed, fruity wine with ripe melon and spiced apple flavors. It is crisp, tangy and attractively textured with fine acidity. Drink now.

An attractive rosé, made from 100% Castelão, the local grape of Setúbal peninsula. It is crisp with citrus and ripe with raspberry giving a fine balance and refreshing character. Drink now.

The wine is slightly off dry, with an attractively perfumed character from the Moscatel Roxo in the blend. Its acidity and ripe strawberry fruit are warm and smooth with just the lightest orange-peel…

The wine is full of the warmth of the Alentejo sun. While it does have a crisp and juicy side, it is the richness and concentration that makes it attractive. Black fruits and toast from the oak aging…

This is a spicy wood-laden wine. Considering it is three-years-old, it seems likely that the burnt-wood flavor will remain. That spoils what is otherwise a ripe and juicy wine with fine black fruits.

Syrah and Trincadeira, both known to be spicy, fit comfortably together in this generous, soft and fruity wine. Juicy black fruits and acidity come together with the tangy texture to produce a wine w…
