Natalie's Score: 87/100

Extreme acidity, green freshness, lime zest. No oak, just laser focus and mouth-watering action. The Alvarinho grape is one of the least productive in the world so it yields concentrated flavours of stone fruit such as tart white peach and green pear. The Trajadura grape adds complexity and finesse. Both are traditional grapes of the Vinho Verde region.
