Encosta Da Criveira Branco

Description

This Encosta da Criveira, born from Arinto and Fernão Pires grapes picked on slopes facing the Castelo de Penela, is a beautiful demonstration that tradition and innovation can, and absolutely should, waltz together. The clay-rich soil, with a touch of Beira Atlântico’s limestone influence, delivers a refreshing vibrancy that manifests as a pronounced mineral character and hints of citrus zest on the palate. It’s a wine that truly honours the heritage of Terras de Sicó, boasting a subtle “engenho” (casked maturation) influence and a touch of artistry – utterly delightful with grilled fish or seafood dishes.
