Here we have 2 whites of a producer that is located in the middle of the “Arrábida” … He has interesting reds at a very competitive price, but the experience with these whites did went quiet well … The normal Alcube, entry of range, just made of “Fernão Pires”, seems a watery wine … A water foot of white wine. Clearly a pool wine. Anyway, you can drink it. Regarding the “reserva”, there is no doubt that it has more structure. Although it also has “Moscatel” (in addition to “Fernão Pires”), the caste is hidden. The wine has an herbaceous flavor … let’s say weird. It has some body, but it seems that it lacks something … It is not that it is a bad wine, but …
