Vale Pradinhos Grande Reserva Branco 2020
Vale Pradinhos Grande Reserva White 2020
Vale Pradinhos Grande Reserva White 2020 is a wine from the region of Macedo de Cavaleiros in the Trás-os-Montes region. The soil is of schist origin, with medium clay content and the presence of quartz. The climate is temperate with continental characteristics.
Vinification: Manual harvest. Rigorous manual selection of the bunches. Total destemming, followed by skin maceration. Gentle pressing. Static decanting followed by fermentation and ageing in oak casks until April 2022.
Producer's tasting notes: The colour is intense straw with very slight greenish reflections. The nose shows a lively, intense aroma, already revealing some depth. Ripe citrus fruits, a slight tropical freshness, yellow and white flowers and a nuance of an apetrol aroma stand out. A beautiful blend supported by soft notes from the barrel ageing. Mineral.
On the palate, dry and silky at the same time. Very balanced acidity that lasts until the finish. Dense yet elegant texture. Citrus and floral explosion. Persistent and very long finish.
Varieties: Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc

Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc. Fermentation and ageing in barrels. The perception of the grape varieties is somewhat diluted by the notes of wood which, for the moment, are expressed in the foreground. Citrus and slightly spicy notes in the background. Very elegant on the palate, with white fruit and light notes of toast.
Fruity vanilla notes (peach, ripe pineapple, lime zest), fresh herbs and white flowers. Elegance and sophistication on the nose with a beautiful texture, perfect acidity, great balance, unctuousness guaranteeing volume and persistence.
