Fiuza Sauvignon Blanc 2016
A very light but very nice wine. To accompany fish and light dishes. Tropical aroma. In the mouth it is light and fresh, but it is not watery ... it is tasty, and well worth the money it costs. Price: 4.75€ P.F. (MAR-2017) 16 Points
CAV 2013
A pretentious white wine from old vines. Fruity and pleasant aroma. In the mouth it is nothing special. Little flavor, little body, some minerality, and some perfectly dispensable gas. The ending is also forgettable. For this price, they have to improve. Price: 12€...
PORTUGUESE WINES ARE GETTING MORE EXPENSIVE
PORTUGUESE WINES ARE GETTING MORE EXPENSIVE Portuguese wines are getting more expensive. And they will continue to rise. I don't think this is that bad. The problem is we have to "put up with this". To drink a French wine with the same quality as a Portuguese wine, we...
Cabeça de Toiro Reserva 2011
A wine for the day-to-day. Uncharacteristic aroma, in the mouth is also nothing special, and at the end scratches the throat a little. It accompanies well a strong meat dish, that is, in a certain way and in a certain context, it is gastronomic. But nothing more....
Fiuza Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
The Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the world's most appreciated grape varietal and I am no different. Fiuza being Portugal's french grapes varieties pioneer, were the first that led me to try a Cabernet Sauvignon worthy of that name. This 2016 harvest presents a slight...
Herdade da Fonte Coberta Alicante Bouschet 2013
An Alicante bouschet different from what I'm used to. The color is less loaded than usual and more brownish, looking like an older wine. In the mouth, elegant, even with some finesse, some notes of alcoholic concentration a little bit parched, balanced and prolonged...
Alma Vitis 2012
A "DOC" appellation wine of the region of Torres Vedras, produced by one of the biggest producers of the region of Lisbon. A slight floral aroma but above all the very mature red fruit which gives it some sweetness, but balanced in the mouth. A wine to buy for those...
Malo Signature 2014
This one is another wine from the recent range of Signatures and, once again, its quality only correlates with the value of the promotion. It has the same negative points of other Signatures: aroma of red fruit very macerated, exaggerated sweetness in its flavour and...
Finca Resalso 2016
This is a 100% tempranillo wine and has a good aromatic intensity to red fruits, some plum, in the mouth it presents a medium body and soft, finishing balanced and fresh. A simple but very pleasant wine. Price: 8€ M.B. (FEB-2018) 16 Points
A Adega Viúva Gomes
Almoçageme, Colares It was a very wintry day, the one that suited us to visit the Adega Viúva Gomes cellar, near Colares, Sintra. No traffic problems and the afternoon was well spent. Sintra is a "magical" area, very peculiar. And when we begin to descend to Colares,...
