"A crisp and nervy white showing aromas of fennel and subtle herbs. The palate is bright and linear, with laser-like precision and a subtle touch of flesh in the finish that rounds out this loureiro-based white. Drink now."

"The 2023 Loureiro is similar to the Ten. Its from the direct pressing of the grapes and fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts at a slightly higher temperature, so it's a little less exuberant but with a subtle note of honey and beeswax intermixed with the white fruit and flowers. It didn't go through malolactic fermentation and has slightly higher maturity, with 10.5% alcohol, and better balance. 55,600 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2024 after two months with lees but without bâtonnage."

"The colour is bright straw-green with hints of deeper yellow-gold. Inviting aromas of green apple, minerals and white flowers soar from the glass, with a hint of balsamic resins. In the mouth, it is very fresh and lifted, with laser-like acidity nicely lifting and extending the zingy citrus, nuanced tropical fruit and mineral flavours on the long finish."
