Dalva Tardia Branco

Description

This Dalva Tardia is a testament to patience, a virtue particularly cherished by the Alijó region. Crafted from Malvasia Fina, grown on schistous soils that impart a delightfully intriguing minerality, and harvested mid-November when noble rot begins to flourish, it’s a deeply immersive experience. The complex flavours – think orange zest and honey – are a direct result of C. da Silva’s meticulous approach, a tradition dating back to 1862. Best enjoyed slowly, perhaps with a creamy goat cheese or a luscious almond sweet, and who knows, it might just transport you back to those legendary vintages of 1952 or 1971.
