Robert Parker

“The 2016 Loureiro, a classic from the estate, is un-oaked. [...] It is precise, straightforward, and penetrating, as usual. Lively, it is quite robust in its youth, but you can still appreciate its beautiful fruit here. It manages to be both delicious and brilliantly structured. [...] If you’re looking for a light, lively, and fresh white, this is one of the best values for the money.” (Wine Advocate 2017 - Robert Parker)
