Lavradores de Feitoria – Meruge 2013 – Branco – Douro

The nose is aromatic. It reveals notes of lemon and vanilla associated with slight touches of lychee, nectarine as well as a very discreet hint of racy minerality. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, beautifully suave, round, elegant, well-built and offers a beautiful freshness, fat, a slight acid frame, a nice minerality, a beautiful definition, gourmandise as well as a silky matter. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe peach, quince, ripe lemon and small notes of apple associated with small touches of lychee, fresh citrus, vanilla as well as slight toasted touches. Good persistence. There is a hint of bitterness, ripe fruits and muesli on the persistence.
