Bright topaz with atypically bold fruit and oak, it reveals torched yellow peach, peach tea, toffee, malt and vanilla flavours. This – Villa Oeiras’ first commercial release – is a blend of the 1997, 1998, 2000 and 2004 vintages, bottled in 2009. Reminiscent of a 1980s ‘shoulder pads’ Chardonnay, prominent oak (early experimentation) adds to the sensation of sweetness (110g/l residual sugar). Flamboyant, if lacking the balance and finesse of this producer’s contemporary releases.
