What Critics Think
Wine Advocate : 90 Points
(5/26/2022) The 2021 Loureiro is the winery's classic version—meaning 'unoaked.' It comes in at 11.6% alcohol, less than 1.5 grams of sugar and 7.3 of total acidity. You can see all the stuffing there to make a classic Ameal, including the big acidity, silky texture and subtle concentration. This is something that should age well, as always, but it will get better. Drink Date: 2022 - 2032.

(12/1/2022) The signature wine from the Ameal estate, this features the Lima Valley's Loureiro. The wine has softness as well as well-textured acidity and minerality. Citrus gives a tangy character, fresh and full of fruit. Drink the wine now.
James Suckling : 93 Points
(4/21/2023) Lots of granite and sliced pear with ripe lemon. Medium-bodied, crunchy and fresh. Crisp. Drink now.
