ON THE PALATE
Fresh to the nose from the outset, it remains so throughout. Saltier, more acidic, more savoury than Esboçopódio Verdelho, this is a juice with an intense fruity bouquet and lingering aftertaste.
EVENTS IT MAKES MAGICAL
So deliciously fresh that under the sun you run the risk of drinking a bottle all by yourself.
Don't! Surround yourself with friends and make an effort to savour it at leisure.
