WTN: Grand'Arte Alvarinho 2007

by Bruce Hayes » Thu Dec 18, 2008 7:28 pm

DJF Vinhos
Vinho Regional Estremadura

Medium yellow in the glass.

Honeyed, spicy nose.

Medium weight, honey, spicy, peppery, fleshy lemon and grapefruit, good acidity, crisp, refreshing.

With time, the wine developed more of a lemon edge.

Lemon rind bitterness and graepfruit on the tangy, mouthwatering finish.

Purchased at $13.95 (Canadian).

That is a good price Bruce. I feel all of us should be paying more attention to Alvarinho if at all possible!
