Fitapreta Branco 2020
Alentejo, Central and Southern Portugal, PortugalFrom lauded winemaker Antonio Maçanita (2020 winemaker of the year in Portugal), this blend of roupeiro, rabo de ovelha, antão vaz, tamarez, alicante branco, and arinto are sourced from Alentejo's granitic soils, and vines from 30-50 years, up to 400m in altitude. After a native ferment in stainless barrels, this remained there on lees for 6 months prior to bottling. This youthful wine is bright and alive on the medium slight palate, with quince, green apple, honeysuckle, earthy lees along a stony base, with a buzzy granitic grip and a lingering salinity.Tasted: 16 December 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $18.95 | 750ml | consignment |
