A Proprietary Blend Dry White Table wine from Vinho Verde, Portugal

Review by Mark Squires eRobertParker.com # 213 June 2014

Rating: 87

Drink: 2014-2016

Cost: $15-18 / € 6,58 at Vinhoweb.pt Maria Papoila at vinhoweb.pt

The 2013 Escolha Maria Papoila is an un-oaked blend of 70% Loureiro and 30% Alvarinho. It comes in at 11.5% alcohol. Seeming perceptibly dry, if fruit-forward, it is fresh and fruity, an easy going summer white that tastes great and also projects a certain, interesting minerality. It is not particularly gripping or concentrated, but it is well balanced, with a juicy and very tasty finish. It should be a hit with everyone for friendly, summer sipping. Drink now-2016
