From the Adega Penalva co-op in the Dão, this blend of Cerceal Branco, Encruzado, and Malvasia fina spent 10 days on skins, giving its orange tint. Quince, honeycomb, bergamot, apricot peel rule the textural palate, with a buzzy granitic grip keeping things interesting through the saline finish. Quite a charming orange. Score - 89.
