This blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Arinto is bright and herbaceous. There is also a more tropical character with pineapple and mango adding their riper notes. The end has a mineral edge. The wine will improve by holding until 2015 in bottle.

The powerful herbaceousness of Sauvignon Blanc dominates, giving a bitter character to this wine and leaving the gentle crispness of Arinto in its wake. Maybe a year will help.
