2013 Maria da Graca VDP

Post by Brian C. »

This is a VDP from Beiras, with 80% Alfrocheiro and 20% Alicante Bouschet. Only 11% ABV. Lots of minerality on this one. The fruit profile was more towards dried strawberries. Definitely had the floral Alfrocheiro profile, also. This wine really reminded me of the one Poulsard from Jura that I tried about six months ago. I think I paid low 20's for it, which might be kind of high, but it's worth trying once for the experience.
