Adega de Penalva Maceration 2020
Dão, Northern Portugal, PortugalFrom the Adega Penalva co-op in the Dão, this blend of Cerceal Branco, Encruzado, and Malvasia fina spent 10 days on skins, giving its orange tint. Honeycomb, bergamot, apricot peel, anise flood the expressive, waxy palate, finely riffed with tannin, and seasoned with marine salts and ash. You can feel Dão's granitic soils through the buzzy finish. Charming and intriguing.Tasted: 08 March 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $22.95 | 750ml | consignment |
