90
90/100 - Jancis Robinson
Subtle cedary citrus. Creamy smell and texture from the lees; no oak influence. Utterly pure, like all the Natus wines. With a very fine grip to the texture. Refreshing and persistent. Excellent quality for ‘entry level'.

Alentejo , Portugal
In southern Portugal lies the wine region of Alentejo. Its hot climate poses a significant challenge for winemakers. Many choose to harvest early, but winemaker Hamilton took a more creative approach and found a completely different solution. Defying the sun, he planted his vines in a pergola system—a method typically used only in Portugal’s Vinho Verde region. This allows the wind to act as a natural “hairdryer,” blowing cool air between the vines. As a result, Hamilton’s vineyards are a few degrees cooler than others in the region.
