Douro Superior, Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalFrom high altitude vineyards in the Douro comes this blend of local grapes: codega do larinho, rabigato, gouveio, dona branca, viosinho and bical. 25 percent barrel fermentation and aging sur lie has resulted in a very textured, oily and stony white, with pear, citrus blossom, meadow herbs and crisp bright finish. Weighty while presenting light citrus notes. Evocative, well done.Tasted: 16 December 2015Tasted by: Prices:
