Top 100 Wines - The Wine Merchant 2020

If ever there was a case to try this 100% indigenous grape variety, the this is it! Not only is this a hard to sell wine, it is also one of the best value wines on the list. I emplore you to broaden your mind and your tastebuds!  '.. they’re terrific value too: I can think of few more refreshing, prettily floral, effortlessly citrus-fruity whites than Vila Nova’s blend of loureiro and arinto.” David Williams, The Guardian and “Very pretty, lightly floral, delicate, fresh. Creamy texture but still taut and zesty. Very drinkable.” 16/20 Jancis Robinson

Follow on from 2015 vintage that Jancis gave 16/20 with comments....Spritzy, herbal and scented. Fragrant with orange blossom and bayleaf with a light, attractively grainy texture like fresh pears. Only 11% volume so the ideal wine for Summer glugging.
