Grandjó


I am getting into white wines.

In fact I am getting into wines (dot).

I think that it is not the food or whatever it is you are having the wine with. It is the momentum that makes this or that wine perfect for the occasion.

Tis wine is quite fruity (moscatel is well noticed here) and fresh.

Very balanced, very smooth I have to

Marquês de Borba Branco


Evrybody know the Marquês de Borba Tinto (red), it is indeed one of the most known wines in portugal.

Coming from J. Portugal Ramos one can nly expect good stuff.

In fact this white is absolutely ecquilibrated, very mild to the nose, very mild to the muse.

Extremely smooth to drink and appealing to the taste.

I don't know what ore to say except...

Plansel Selecta


Nce wine.
I bought it at a local delicatessen just because of the way it looked and the price :)
At first when I opened it it was bit too bitter.
Then as it aired n the bottle i started to like it.
It has for sure a lot of central european influences even though the grapes are typically portuguese. But it tastes a lot as the Hungarian, German and Austrian wines ai Have tasted so far.
Maybe it is because the name of the producer is Bohm (sorry no tremma in my keyboard)

João Pires


Very fruity wine, almost like Moscatel, another kind of wine very sweet very fresh, and always good.

It is starting to be one of my favourite "fresh" wines.

It means it should be drank very cold.

Indeed very nice.
