They have a sea breeze that you notice immediately when walking through the vineyards, and this gives the wine freshness. So, they added on the label the words \"Terroir Marítimo\" (sea terroir) and Coastal Selection. It's fruit-driven, young, fresh and clean, with 12.5% alcohol and very good acidity. 50,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2025.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTom's Tasting Note: \u003c\/strong\u003eA medium lemon yellow, straw edges.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eThe nose is pronounced with noses of lemon, lime, lychee, mixed exotic florals, and saline.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eMedium bodied, the racy acidity is more med+ with good energy and tension.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003ePalate flavors are persistent, fresh, and they lean into the mineral and exotic side of these grapes nicely.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eThe finish is fresh, clean and mouthwatering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Makers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manuel \u0026amp; Luís Cerdeira\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Monçao e Melgaço, Portugal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrapes:\u003c\/strong\u003e  50% Alvarinho, 25% Arinto, 25% Maria Gomes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Granite with above-average clay content.
