Oscar’s White

Oscar’s is a seriously easy-drinking wine. With higher percentage of Gouveio than in the previous years, this wine has a really nice floral touch that makes it very appealing. Its zippy flavors of fruit and minerality make it perfect for long afternoons.

TASTING NOTES

Colour

Light Straw

AROMA

Strong floral aromas with passion fruit and grapefruit, very open and intense.

PALATE

The palate follows the nose with a smooth entry, great tension on mid-palate with citrusy and passion fruit flavours. The finish is clean and refreshing full of floral and mineral notes.

PRESS COMMENTS & ACCOLADES

Wine Advocate

87/100

The 2021 Oscar’s Branco is a screw-capped blend of Gouveio (37%), Viosinho (33%) and others, all unoaked and coming in at 12.85% alcohol. (Kudos to the winery for being transparent about the blend right on the label.) Fruity and fresh, this is a clean and pure white that should go well in warm weather and on its own. There’s not a lot of energy, but it has a sunny demeanor and tastes great. Drink it on the younger side for best results. It’s worth leaning up for the moment.

Light, with citrus and green-apple flavors, this wine is fresh and packed with fruit. It could do with further aging to restrain the fruitiness and tangy texture. Drink the wine from 2023.
