NV Villa Oeiras 7YO Vinho Generoso
Carcavelhos. Aged for an average of 7 years in a mixture of Portuguese and French oak. Pale peach colour. A lovely nose of peach and apricot, sweet and honeyed. Sweet, light and gentle on the palate - a touch of honey, lots of floral perfume. The wine has enough acidity to be balanced. Honey and lime on the aftertaste and finish. Delicious, and very easy to drink. 90/100. Tasted at the Dirty Dozen tasting in London on 13-Sep-2022.
