Azores Company Verdelho O Original Branco

Description

This Verdelho from the Azores, lauded with 92 points by Robert Parker, certainly seems to have had a rather indulgent youth. The terroir – a vibrant mix of volcanic soil and those characteristic local Verdelho grapes – bursts with pineapple and passionfruit, yet retains that wonderfully saline freshness so typical of the islands. A truly elegant wine, it’s poised to perfectly complement grilled fish or seafood – a delightful pairing, wouldn’t you agree?
