TN: 2019 Bacalhôa Quinta da Garrida Encruzado (Dão, Reserva?)

Post by Eric Menchen »

The aroma is sweet and fruity, with buttery character as well. There are also tropical notes, with pineapple, and then maybe something like melon or guava. Also I wondered if there was some acetaldehyde in there as well. This is a reasonable white wine, but in that group of whites that I don’t really like. 86 points.

I didn't write "Reserva" when I took my tasting note, but looking at the Bacalhôa website, I don't see a non-reserva wine listed. So I think it is this one: https://www.bacalhoa.pt/quinta-da-garrida-branco.html
