Type of wine
White wine made from Alvarinho grapes from a single plot that produces a wine that reveals the purest and most original of the variety.
The profile of this wine is an apology for elegance and complexity.

Key points
Grapes harvested manually in small boxes and transported to the cellar in a short time. Very gentle pressing of de-stemmed whole grapes. Long clarification with cold. Fermentation in new French oak barrels of 400 liters. Aging in these barrels for 9 months with bâtonnage on total lees. Aging for 12 months in bottle.

Tasting Notes
Complex and austere nose. Nuances of wild flowers and hay together with a delicate minerality reminiscent of wet stone. Slight hazelnut and vanilla from fermentation and aging in barrels. On the palate, the refreshing acidity and verticality stand out. Slightly smoked with a long, elegant finish.
