Howard’s Folly 2012 Sonhador Alvarinho (Vinho Verde)

Country: Portugal / Sonhador
Variety: Alvarinho Vinho Verde
Winery: Howard’s Folly /

This wine, with its late release and maturity is aiming to show that Alvarinho can age. The verdict: Sometimes, but not this time. The wine is definitely old with a strong oxidative character and no sign of any fruit.
