2014 Alvarinho Contacto, Vinho Verde, Portugal

Translate to English Kühler, geschliffener Duft nach Zitrusfrüchten, etwas gelben Melonen und Quitten mit hefigen und sehr feinen kräuterig-pflanzlichen Aromen sowie heller Mineralik im Hintergrund. Recht fest gewirkte, ziemlich saftige und feinwürzige Frucht mit hefigen, kräuterigen und deutlich mineralischen Noten, sehr feine, lebendige Säure, feiner Biss und Griff, nussige Anklänge, nachhaltig, noch jung, aber schon ungeheuer animierend, beste Balance, sehr guter, straffer, saftiger und feinwürziger Abgang. Eine Freude.
