Alves de Sousa - Quinta Da Gaivosa Porto Blanc 10 ans d'âge (50cl)
89/100
Robert Parker
"A delicious 10-year-old white port with notes of hazelnut, honey, and stone fruits..."
"The 10-year-old Quinta da Gaivosa white Port is a blend of grape varieties. This is the new 2016 vintage (lot no. LW10.03) with 87 grams of residual sugar per liter. In this new version, it remains true to itself—refined and elegant. With a few darker nuances upon opening and a hint of brandy, it ultimately offers a lovely finish. It is fairly dry, but with a touch of sweetness that makes it pleasant and easy to drink, despite a certain liveliness on the finish. The alcohol is noticeable at times, but this is a refined 10-year-old port with rich notes. It features a “bar top” cork. 2016–2035” (Robert Parker 2016)
