2022 Muralhas de Moncao Vinho Verde [WS90]

Producer: Muralhas de Moncao Region: Vinho Verde, Portugal Blend: Alvarinho and Trajadura Year: 2022  #41 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2023  Wine Spectator, 90 Points  "There's a flinty underpinning to this fragrant white, which shows a succulent range of ripe apricot, blood orange, white blossoms, lemon peel and pickled ginger. Sleek and linear, with a hint of saline on the finish. Alvarinho and Trajadura."  Winemaker Notes:  "Brilliant citrine in color. Predominantly fruity character, aiming to highlight the aromas of stone fruit resulting from the high percentage of the blend being Albarino. Balanced, persistent, chewy and dry."  Alcohol: 12.5%  *Price and availability in store may vary. Vintage date may differ from pictured.
