Maçanita – Os Canivéis 2015 – Douro

The nose is mineral and offers a slight concentration. It reveals notes of fresh lemon, fresh vine peach associated with a hint of quenette, as well as a subtle hint of passion fruits, boxwood and small hints of flint / minerality. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, elegant, gourmand and offers a beautiful mineral / fresh frame, a slight acidity, a beautiful guideline, tension, precision, a beautiful definition as well as dynamism. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe lemon and slight notes of vine peach, brugnon associated with a subtle hint of mandarin, a discreet hint of exotic fruits, racy minerality as well as an imperceptible touch of almond fresh. Good length and very beautiful persistence.
