Casa Das Gaeiras Branco

Description

Right then, let’s have a look at this Casa das Gaeiras – it’s clearly aiming for a touch of historical grandeur, isn’t it? Expect pineapple and lemon aromas, a promise of freshness that’s delightfully uncomplicated, and a nod to the 18th century, as if the vines themselves had witnessed a grand ball. The real trick, of course, is the terroir of Óbidos, combined with that cool maceration, resulting in a surprisingly mineral white that’s won a few hearts in the popular wine guide. Perfect with a hefty cheese or, frankly, any decent cod – a proper journey through time and flavour, wouldn’t you say?
