Winemaker’s notes: “Both plots where the grapes for this skin contact Chinado come from were harvested manually, between 427 August and 3 of September, into 15 Kg crates. A first selection of the grapes is done at the vineyard and then we check every bunch before de-steming, to ensure we only get the healthy grapes in. The grapes were then destemmed and maceration began. On the following day fermentation was on it’s way. The must remained with skins for 14 days and during that time all we do is a gentle delestage by hand twice a day. We then pressed the grapes into a stainless steel tank where fermentation continued until it was completed. The wine was racked during winter, blended and bottled the following spring”.

Crafted by João Tereso, a sound engineer who ventured into winemaking in 2017 to save his grandfather’s small plots of field-blend vines in Alcobaça, an hour north of Lisbon, Portugal.

Additional Information

Both plots where the grapes for this skin contact Chinado come from where harvested

manually, between the 6th and the 8th of September, into 15 Kg crates. THe vintage agve

us very well balanced grapes and harvest was on point to capture that balance. A first

selection of the grapes is done at the vineyard and then we check every bunch before

processing, to ensure we only get the best grapes in. The grapes were then de-stemed

and maceration began. The wine remained with skins for 12 days and during that time all

we do is gentle punchdowns by hand twice a day. We then pressed the grapes into a

stainless steel tank where fermentation continued until it was completed. The wine was

racked during winter, blended and bottled the following spring.

It shows classical skin contact aromas on the nose, like tea leaves and lemongrass. In the

mouth you get some stone fruit and mineral under tones, flanked by just the right amount

of acidity, soft tannins and a firm finish.

An Great Upgrade from the Previous Edition, but a bit yellow
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
The Zondervan Greek/Hebrew Reader's has been a classic for students of biblical languages, who desire a full biblical text (WLC for OT/Eclectic text (NIV) for NT) with the helps and assist of a Reader's edition. The first edition (black, bonded leather) has been a mainstay for a number of years. This new release (second edition) updates a few things from the previous edition. The second edition comes in a cloth-bound hardcover, which is an upgrade in my opinion from the previous editions bonded leather cover. The cover provides structure to the updated and improved binding. The fonts have been updated across the board, they are bolder and easier to read. This editions brings a lot of great updates and improvements on the first edition. Unfortunately, the glosses provided at the bottom of each page are organized in paragraph form, rather than in columns (UBS5), which makes it a bit difficult to find the footnote number and word you're searching for. Another big change is the paper color. The first edition had a bright white paper, the second edition is a deep creamy yellow paper. While I'm a fan of how readable this edition is (due to font changes), I feel the paper is way too yellow than it should be. (check pics see the difference). All in all, if you can deal with the yellow paper, this is a fantastic edition to have for reading in the biblical languages. **bible graciously provided by Zondervan for an honest review

Very nice
Format: Hardcover
They greatly improved the font (ie. a kappa looks like a kappa) and the yellowish pages are easier on the eyes. I really like it.

Not as good as the first edition overall
Format: Hardcover
The Greek part has used the third edition of the reader's Greek New Testament. But the font is not as dark and readable as the independent reader's Greek New Testament. Also, the words on the opposite page can be easily seen. The Hebrew part is the same as before in terms of content, but the fort is not as dark and readable as the previous editions. Also, the words on the opposite page can be easily seen. The pages are yellow and are not comfortable to read. It is thicker than the first edition, not portable as the first edition. I have been waiting for this new edition for a long time because of the poor font format used in the second edition of the reader's Greek New Testament. After I received it, however, I was very disappointed. You just do not enjoy reading it and using it. It is even not as good as the original edition. It is not worth 60 bucks. I do not suggest you buy it if you want to read it and use it often. If for reference only, 30 bucks may be a fair price.
