CHURCHILL'S ESTATES |
| Here is a 91-point preview tasting note from Jason Solanki: This blend of Rabigato, Viosinho and Codega has a reserved, subtle oak influenced nose of ripe apple, pear, and orchard fruit aromas. It's medium to medium-full bodied on the dry, crunchy palate with very good, juicy acidity, which supports the delicious aroma replays of orchard fruits, apple, and pear, alongside some earthy vanilla notes, which turn more earthy mineral on the long, juicy finish. Fermented in stainless steel about 20% was aged in new oak for 6 months. It has 13% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L25079 on the lower part of the glass bottle. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: This estate is situated in the Mediterranean climate of the Cima Corgo region and benefits from a south-facing exposure of the vineyards. A portion of this wine is aged for six months in new casks, lending a toasty edge to the tropical-fruit character. The long finish is underscored by graphite and mineral. |
