Adegas Gran Vinum

The grapes for this wine come from three different estate vineyards and from contracted fruit grown in the Val do Salnes sub-region of Rias Baixas. Cool maceration with skins overnight at low temperature and then only moderate pressure is used to obtain the more aromatic portion of the must. Fermented in stainless steel vats with temperature control. Bottled in March 2008.

Wine Enthusiast

Slightly dusty, spicy and cider-like on the nose, with a tight palate holding nectarine, melon and apple flavors. It’s fairly exact in terms of mouthfeel, while the finish is clean and reflects well on the wine. Drink now.

Score: 88. —Michael Schachner, August 01, 2009.

Wine Spectator

Firm and smooth, this crisp white shows grapefruit, mineral and juniper flavors that are focused and refreshing. Not a big wine, but has some intensity. Drink now. 5,000 cases made.

Score: 87. —Thomas Matthews, September 30, 2009.
