Origin
Produced in the Dão region of Portugal, a historic wine region known for its high-quality wines and unique terroir characterized by granite soils and a temperate climate.
Variety
The wine is made predominantly from the Encruzado grape variety, a native white grape of the Dão region prized for its aromatic complexity and aging potential.
Production
The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve freshness and aromatic intensity. The wine is then aged in oak barrels to develop complexity and structure before bottling.
Tasting notes
- Appearance: Pale straw yellow with greenish reflections.
- Aroma: Intense and elegant bouquet with notes of citrus fruits, white flowers, and subtle hints of vanilla and toasted oak.
- Palate: Well-balanced with fresh acidity, medium body, and a creamy texture. Flavors of ripe apple, pear, and a touch of minerality lead to a long, harmonious finish.
Food pairings
- Seafood dishes such as grilled fish, shellfish, and seafood risotto.
- Light poultry preparations, including roasted chicken or turkey with herbs.
- Soft cheeses like goat cheese or mild creamy cheeses.
- Vegetable-based dishes and fresh salads.
