Chardonnay and a compatible partner
Colour is a light
straw and the nose is aromatic, vibrant and fruity. On the palate, it is
vivacious, dry with nicely rounded tropical fruit with a persistent dry finish.
This well made blend, Adega de Pegoes, comes from the Setubal Peninsula
and is a fifty partnership between the well accomplished international
traveller Chardonnay and the versatile native grape Arinto. Unusually, for the Spanish/Portuguese
area, it comes with a cork closure. A good wine at a good price. Highly
recommended.
