White

Bottled in 1991 by Sanguinhal, who acquired the stock in 1989, it is mostly composed of Galego Dourado. Pale, finely honed and dry (c. 10g/l residual sugar), with gentle nuttiness and marked saline and ozone notes. Fresh, steely grapefruit acidity makes for a poised persistent finish with lingering spice and salinity. Lacks the concentration of its peers, but the clarity of expression and sense of place is impressive at some 80-years old.
