Quinta do Vallado Prima 2019

Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalThis delicate muscatel galego, from 3 parcels, one of which is 55+ year old vines, is the first that Vallado picks each year. This is a dry muscatel, fermented without skins (bica aberta) in stainless, over one month, to preserve the perfume and vibrancy. Pretty fragrant lime blossom, gooseberry, lemon verbena, pear blossom runs the slender, streamlined palate through a finely ginger spiced finish. A lovely aperitif wine, or with fragrant Thai / Vietnamese curries.Tasted: 07 May 2021Tasted by: Prices:
