1952 Dalva Golden White Colheita (bottled 2006)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2006. Pale gold colour, with a green rim. Strong VA on the nose, with little else showing. Sharply focused attack, with strong acidity bringing concentrated oranges and grapefruit that has a tremendous intensity. There is a slight bitterness on the aftertaste, and a modest finish of good length. Very good showing on such a short decant. 94/100. 15-Jun-12. Pop 'n' pour
