Winemaker's Tasting Notes
Clear and bright topaz colour, with a golden hue right up to the rim. Fresh and fragrant bouquet of dried fruits and spice with luxurious warm orangey aromas. Medium dry and full- bodied. Concentrated and fresh with a pleasant zesty bittersweet edge from a finely balanced acidity. Long lingering aftertaste of exotic fruits with spicy overtones.

90 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Bottled in 2015, Non Vintage Verdelho 10 Year Old has a delineated, vivacious bouquet with dried quince, orange peel and a touch of sea water, perhaps demonstrating wider appeal than its uncompromising Sercial counterpart. The palate is medium-bodied with a pleasant honeyed texture on the entry, very well judged acidity, those oxidative/nutty notes neatly counterbalancing the sweetness and viscosity towards the finish with some aplomb. This is endowed with impressive length and harmony here, to wit, a perfect introduction to the delights of Verdelho.

90 Points - Wine Spectator
Features good cut to the dried pear and melon flavors, complemented by notes of melted butter. Well-spiced on the fresh, minerally finish, showing some savory accents. Drink now through 2020.
