Description

“Two Portuguese varieties, Antão Vaz and Arinto make this wine that is bottled early to maintain all its freshness and exuberance. Antão Vaz, one of the most resistant varieties and of great importance in Alentejo, joins the versatility of Arinto to produce a very harmonious and well balanced wine.
Greenish yellow citrine colour, clear and bright. On the nose you can feel the two varieties in harmony. As first sensations, despite being in a lesser extent, has intense notes of grapefruit, lime and leaves of chamomile tea from the Arinto, followed by a mix of tropical fruits. As the temperature increases, the Antão Vaz will increasingly contribute to nose with sensations of ripe stone fruit. In the tasting, it presents much finesse in attack and volume and plenty of freshness, making it particularly noted lemonade sensations and mineral notes.”
