Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Clean and expressive up front, with floral aromas shaped by doses of grass, apple and pear. Tastes very good, with condensed fruit creating a nice mouthfeel. Very long on the back end.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Zesty as all get out, with a touch of spritz. Full melon, nectarine and green-herb aromas set the stage for apricot, peach and citrus flavors. Hails from Condado do Tea and seems racier than most.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A single-vineyard wine made from tear must that was extracted during a light pressing. It’s smooth and concentrated, with apple, melon, peach and a touch of white-pepper. Shows good acidity and style.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Nice, clean and vibrant, with a welcoming set of peach, apricot and citrusy aromas. The wine is 100% correct and fresh, with clarity and flavors of apple, peach and green grapes. Shows just enough body, acid and pith on the finish, but drink now before it starts to fade.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A little yellow in color and fuller with its aromas, Laxas delivers chunky but pleasant apple, melon and orange scents that come with pine-needle accents. The palate is clean and textured, with apple, green melon, banana and cucumber flavors. Shows body and balance throughout. Imported by Frontier Wine Imports.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Pleasant but a little light on the nose, with candied fruit notes. Flavors of green melon, apple and citrus are standard fare and clean, while the feel is fresh and peachy. A balanced and nice wine, but not overly exciting or precise. Drink now with salad or fish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Hints of peanut and caramel vie with mineral and acacia blossom for center stage on the nose, while the palate deals nut skins, lime, kiwi and gooseberry. In the end, this is a tangy, streamlined wine that’s refreshing. It has some style but it’s mostly just racy and lean.
