Pithy, textured, phenolic, and structured. Deep color in the glass. More ballsy than your typical Alvarinho. Seabra is more concerned with terroir than grapes, so the wines are labeled based on soil type. — 2 months ago

Mostly Rabigato. Named “Xisto” after the schist soils of the Cima Corgo. Sun drenched orchard fruits. Honeysuckle. Broad minerality. Think I would guess Chenin in a blind. Maybe Aligote? — 2 years ago

Perhaps the best Douro table wine we’ve tried, even if it was probably still too young and will be more enjoyable with more bottle aging. — 4 years ago

Puligny? Meursault? A ton of bang for the buck. 100% Alvarinho from Dao (past vintages seem to be from Minho) Ages in parts, 1000L used and 1000L new oak. — 2 years ago

9.5

day one cru beaujolais nose with underbrush red berry and chicory notes in a dark candy apple red cloak, just lovely and unstoppable….like you can’t stop drinking it…..day two softer darker cloudier more nuanced stewed fruit and vegetal notes, earthier - traded leaf for soil, and a very appealing candied orange rind scented bitter melon finish. both days great with delicate and hearty foodthings, versatile and expansive….if you can find this, lay it down. — 5 years ago

Tasted with Pascaline Lepeltier, who was as enthusiastic as the rest of us. Lots of sensory impressions in balance. Luis Seabra recommended we try this wine when we met him in Porto. — 2 years ago

9.3

Tops among the many things I enjoy about this are the minerality, purity in delineation, rich mouthfeel, and relatively good value for an old-vine, terroir-driven wine developed with this level of care. — 4 years ago
