Casa Ferreirinha 2017 Planalto Reserva - 87pts

Casa Ferreirinha 2017 Planalto Reserva 4U (Douro DOC) Portugal

Availability
: Private wine shops like Everything Wine
Cost: $15.99 + taxes
Alcohol: 13%

Date Tasted: February 14th, 2019

Tasting Notes: An early candidate for the best valued wine of the year, the Planalto is a refreshing, dry blend of native Portugese grapes: 
35% Viosinho; 15% each of Malvasia Fina, Gouveio, Códega and Arinto; and 5% Moscatel. Clean, crisp and, admittedly, conservative, this reserved blend is anything but flashy with a good balance of mineral, acid and orchard fruit characters. An inexpensive, food-friendly wine to pair with seafood salads, sushi or light, whipped cheeses. Drink now-2021.
