One of my favourite Douro whites, thanks to its combination of aromatic peachy fruit and vibrant acidity. Made from Moscatel Galego Branco (France's Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains) with zesty citrus and stone fruit aromas. The palate balances peach and apricot fruit with bright citrus and a mineral streak. Brilliant value for money.
