“This Sauvignon from Casa Relvas is clearly treated with a considerable amount of care – that meticulous hand-harvesting really shines through. The extended pre-fermentation maceration (8-12 hours) speaks volumes about their respect for the grapes, while the vacuum-pressed extraction ensures only the finest elements are released. The carefully controlled fermentation (15-18°C) and three-month *sur lies* ageing add a vibrant acidity and citrus notes, hinting at the renowned cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia. It’s a wine that practically *demands* a plate of fresh oysters for the perfect pairing.”
