The Tapada de Coelheiros Branco from Alentejo, Portugal, is a well-crafted white wine that showcases the unique terroir of the region and the blend of native Portuguese grape varieties. Here are the tasting notes for this wine:

Appearance:
The wine presents a bright, pale golden-yellow color with a slight greenish hue, reflecting its freshness and vibrancy.

Nose:
On the nose, the Tapada de Coelheiros Branco is aromatic and expressive, with a bouquet of ripe orchard fruits such as pear, green apple, and quince. These fruit notes are complemented by hints of citrus zest, particularly lemon and lime, and a subtle floral aspect like orange blossom or acacia. There is also a touch of fresh herbs and a distinct minerality, reminiscent of wet stone, adding depth and complexity to the aroma.

Palate:
The palate is medium-bodied with a crisp, refreshing acidity that gives the wine a lively and zesty character. The fruit flavors are well-defined, with green apple, pear, and citrus leading the way, followed by a hint of white peach and melon. The wine has a smooth texture, with a slight creaminess that adds a layer of richness without overpowering its freshness. The minerality detected on the nose continues on the palate, providing a clean, precise edge that enhances the overall structure.

Finish:
The finish is long and refreshing, with lingering notes of citrus, green apple, and a touch of minerality. The wine leaves a clean, crisp aftertaste with a slight hint of almond or hazelnut, making it both satisfying and invigorating.

Overall Impression:
Tapada de Coelheiros Branco is a beautifully balanced and elegant wine that captures the essence of the Alentejo region. Its combination of ripe fruit, lively acidity, and distinct minerality makes it an excellent choice for pairing with a variety of dishes, including seafood, grilled fish, poultry, salads, and light pasta dishes. It is also a fantastic wine to enjoy on its own as a refreshing aperitif, particularly in warm weather. The wine’s complexity and depth suggest it has the potential to age gracefully for a few years, developing further nuances and character.
