José Maria da Fonseca on Snooth

  • Jose Maria da Fonseca Periquita Moscato 2009

    Snoothrank:

    Powerful nose of honey, flowers, perfume. Very sweet smelling, but it's quite a dry wine, still floral, with a wooded character, more perfume and a bit of cedar box spice. Read More

  • Jose Maria da Fonseca Periquita Moscato 2009

    Snoothrank:

    The very definition of a bouquet on the nose. Let's bust out the aroma chart... Pear, lychee, orange, perfume, and Off! Yes, the bug repellent, but I swear it's pleasant. Soft and delicate in the mouth - not as exciting as the nose. A very interesting wine. Read More

  • Twin Vines Vinho Verde 2008

    Snoothrank:

    Lively tropical nose. A slice of lemon-lime, a bit of honey dew sweetness, but just as an afterthought, a footnote. Cheap and cheerful. Read More

  • Jose Maria da Fonseca Periquita Moscato 2009

    Snoothrank:

    very aromatic, some floral aromas, lilac, lychee, peach and a twinge of melon on the nose, like sweet perfume and seems similar to a Viognier. the plate is floral, herbal, some grassy notes with little hints of orange and peach nectar. lovely finish. Light and refreshing on the palate makes very enjoyable for a warm spring day. Read More

  • Twin Vines Vinho Verde 2008

    Snoothrank:

    Sweet light melons on the nose. Tart and sweet up front but with a light body that's a bit demure. A light dusting of smarties on the finish. Nice. Read More

  • Twin Vines Vinho Verde 2008

    Snoothrank:

    Concord grape jelly and jolly rancher aromas with just a touch of citrus spice. Palate is light, light bodied, slightly oily with melon, peach and kiwi. Refreshing. Read More

  • I always was under the impression that non-vintage champagne and other sparklers have to be drunk shortly after release and usually never keep them more then a few months. Now a friend of mine claimed that he ages non-vintage champagne for about 5 years, as they would develop a "nuttier" and less fruity taste. So is there any advantage in aging ... Read More

  • José Maria da Fonseca Periquita Vinho Regional Península de Setúbal/Terras Do Sado 2005

    Snoothrank:

    Always looking for a drinkable red under $10. We enjoy what I call "Old European style" wines - to find them, we look for old-fashioned labels, with no animals pictured on them. This filled the bill, and I would definitely buy it again. On the lighter side, fruity, not too much tannin. Read More

  • Domini-Jose Maria da Fonseca & Van Zeller Rot 2004

    Snoothrank:

    Een tanninerijke, volle wijn die de 7 euro bij de AH zeker waard is. Read More
