The 2019 Altano Branco (the blue label) is a blend of 30% each of Malvasia Fina and Moscatel Galego, with the last 40% being a field blend of Viosinho and Rabigato. It is unoaked, very dry and comes in at 12.8% alcohol. This is a nice deal for the price, if you like them aromatic, pungent and refreshing. This is fairly slight in the mid-palate, but it is exuberant aromatically and crisp on the finish. It's a perfect warm-weather white. It's probably not the wine to age, but for early drinking, it is doing its job exceptionally well this year. It might hold a few years, but that is probably not the point. It's worth leaning up on this lively Branco today.
