Herdade Do Portocarro Galego Dourado Branco

Description

Tasting Notes: Pale, open, and clear in colour. Discreet on the nose, with citrus notes, flint (flinstone) and wet stone. On the palate, the attack is also citrusy, but white-fleshed fruits join in, such as pear, along with wet stone, minerality and saline notes. Very well-balanced acidity, fresh, full-bodied, long and persistent. The Producer: Herdade do Portocarro, run by José Mota Capitão, lies between the districts of Setúbal and Évora, right alongside the Sado River. It is a small producer making exciting wines, serious wines that respect nature and their place of origin, and that age gracefully. Herdade do Portocarro is surrounded by the green of rice paddies, with the vineyard set against a horizon that is hard to forget, and the quality of its harvests makes this estate, year after year, one of the most renowned in the region.
