Rodrigo Mendez Description
"Light brilliant yellow. Ripe, mineral-accented pear, orange zest, white flowers and ginger on the fragrant nose; notes of honey and smoky lees add complexity. Lush orchard and pit fruit flavors gain depth and spiciness with air, picking up a zestier Meyer lemon nuance on the back half. The pear note carries strongly through the seamless, impressively long finish, which shows excellent clarity and bright mineral cut." -importer
Wine Advocate: 95+ Points
"The 2022 Sálvora keeps the sharp and austere profile of the very old vineyard, even in a warmer year like 2022. It has a little more volume and alcohol (still a moderate 12.7%) and more integrated acidity. 2,000 bottles were filled in August 2023."
Wine Enthusiast: 93 Points
"Aromas of clementine, apricot and white flowers emanate from the glass. Ripe summer-peach flavor jumps onto the palate accompanied by striking acidity, and notes of apricot, oyster shell and rose water. A nice savory herbal note marks the bright finish."
