Anta dos Lobos Selection 2017

Alentejo, Central and Southern Portugal, PortugalThis Alentejo family dates back to the 15th Century, when one of their ancestors was named the first Baron and Marquis of Alvito (the first Baron title) from King Afonso V. Their coat of arms bore 5 wolves, and today it is five young cousins who are overseeing this winery and its 75ha of vines. This wine blends arinto, antao vaz, and chardonnay into a full bodied, oaken white, rich with wood spice and ripe yellow fruits. Baked pear, fragrant white peach, mandarin and musk melon swirl on the heady palate, finishing with more toasty spice. A richer wine to handle creamy dishes.Tasted: 18 July 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
