Fita Preta Chão Dos Eremitas Os Paulistas Branco

Description

This Fitapreta, hailing from the Chão dos Eremitas, is a delightful reminder that the Alentejo still has surprises in store. The vibrant yellow hue hints at a burst of citrus, particularly lemon, with a subtle dry leaf complexity. On the palate, the acidity is wonderfully pronounced, beautifully balanced by an incredibly smooth, almost luscious texture – as locals would say, wonderfully “grego.” The finish is impressively long, carrying creamy nuances that pair perfectly with a good sheep’s cheese; a combination that, unsurprisingly, earned it a recent medal at the Decanter World Wine Awards.
