"Lean and focused, the Granite version of this vinho verde seems focused on the earth — or the rock — while the Schist tastes more of flowers and fruit reaching for the sun. Aside from showing how geology influences a wine’s flavor, it’s a delightful patio sipper and a good choice for those relaxing days when lunch isn’t just a sandwich hastily scarfed at our desks. - Dave McIntyre"
- The Washington Post (May 2021), ** EXCELLENT - GREAT VALUE
"The 2023 Encostas Do Lima Granito Vinho Verde is solid, with a slightly more earthy, leafy herbal style as well as beautiful citrus fruit, medium body, bright acidity, and a clean finish. It's clean, well-made,and delicious. All Loureiro from granitic soils and brought up in stainless steel, drink bottles over the coming year or so."
