Conde de Vimioso Reserva Branco 2019

The 2019 Branco Reserva Conde de Vimioso is an Arinto aged for 10 months in used French oak of varying ages. It comes in at 12.5% alcohol. The Branco here at $50 may be a tough sell for Falua and Tejo, but this is quite good, although hardly sensational. Elegant and textured with velvet, it has some woody nuances up front, but it integrates them pretty well. A refined and understated table wine, this is something everyone can like. It could use a bit more depth, though. It nonetheless will pair seamlessly with many foods and be perfect at the table. The price point may be difficult to manage, but that's up to you and your pocketbook.
