"The 2020 Guru is a field blend from old vines (60 years), mostly Viosinho, Rabigato, Códega do Larinho and Gouveio, aged for eight months in 91% used French oak. It comes in very dry and at 12.4% alcohol. This is another fine year for what has become one of Douro's finest whites. I don't think it is equal to the 2019, the last reviewed, but it is also quite unevolved and capable of significant improvement. It is very elegant in terms of mid-palate finesse and very dry in terms of its fruit profile. It always seems fresh and lively, not anything like an oaky and fat white. The key calling card here, though, is the structure. Powerful on the finish, this simply grips the palate and won't let go. The fruit always holds its own. This is going to need a couple of years to show everything it has—not that it is so bad to drink today—but it certainly looks like another splendid offering in this brand."
Winemaker Notes:
"An elegant wine exhibiting grapefruit and mineral aromas and flavors warmed by oak contact. Refreshing, with a fine balance and long finish."
Alcohol: 12.5%
