Quinta do Gradil 1492 Branco, Vinho Regional Lisboa-C328

Medium lemon hue. Pronounced aromas of mineral, cut grass, white grapefruit, bell pepper, white pepper, and bay. An absolute winner, this is just a wonderful blend of two varietals, combining Sauvignon's lively nose with Arinto's structure. There's cut grass, tomato leaf, bell pepper, tangerine and lemon pith alongside peach, apricot and melon. The finish combines the two with a lick of acidity and there's surprising length given the very modest price. A great example of why Portuguese wines are increasing in popularity. 2026-2028 – MP
