"A safe bet
Docil is a balanced, full-bodied vinho verde: Loureiro's vines, planted on granite soils, produce a wine with a very pronounced aromatic profile, with a predominance of fresh floral aromas and crisp acidity. A fine entry into the world of wine!

I knew this estate from tasting their ports in March. This bottle is worth the detour for its controlled acidity and rather floral nose. It's very well made.
