Taboadella – Grande Villae 2018 – Dão

The nose is fruity and offers concentration as well as a fine grain. It reveals notes of quince, crushed apple, small notes of exotic fruits associated with small touches of lemon as well as a subtle hint of lemon flowers and a discreet hint of lemon verbena. The palate is fruity, mineral, well-balanced and offers freshness, a small tension, an acidulous frame and a small suavity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of lemon, quenette, crushed lychee, small notes of fleshy/fresh pear associated with small touches of kumquat zests, small fresh white fruits as well as a discreet hint of eucalyptus. Good length. Very discreet hints of toasted, toasted hazelnut on the persistence.
