Note for Casa de Santar 2006

Encruzado/Cerceal Branco/Bical 12.5% alc.- Slight greenish hay color showing honeydew melon and pear with light notes of both cinnamon dusting and wet bark. Great acidity on the dead center of the palate, with a elegant round mouthfeel. The wine gently rolls off the sides of my tongue like rain on a newly waxed car, leaving a slight citrus and tropical fruit finish. I like it more than I did before, yet I still find a slight hollowness on the palate. Albeit balanced, the wine lacks a bit of personality. 3/5 October 8, 2007 | Link to this note
