Douro Valley
Tasting Notes
The wine is a radiant, pale yellow hue flecked with gold. Aromas are complex and expressive releasing apricot, citrus and acacia notes, along with honey and vanilla. The wine is fresh and full-bodied with a broad entry on the palate. The finish shows a lovely minerality and floral flavors.
Food Pairings
Ideal with Mediterranean style appetizers as well as fish and seafood. Serving temperature: between 12°C.
Winemaking Notes
The grapes are hand-harvested at maturity and transported in trays. Vinification takes place with the pressing of the whole bunches, light settling and alcoholic fermentation in demi-muid (600l) vats. Maturation takes place on the lees for 10 months with a light stirring of the lees.

Old vines (60-80 years) from the Cima Corgo. Soil composed of granitic sands of varying depth. The granite subsoil breaks through the surface in places. East or northeast-facing slopes to preserve aromatic freshness and acidity. The summers are hot and dry and the winters are cool and wet.
