Kompassus Branco

Description

This Kompassus from the Bairrada is a bold statement from Anselmo Mendes, the undisputed king of Atlantic white wines. Grown on a vineyard exceeding 70 years, with a planting density harking back to ancient traditions – a delightfully cheeky border violation, really – it yields grapes of Bical, Maria Gomes, Arinto and Cercial. The result is a wine, as praised by *Revista de Vinhos*, that bursts with mineral and citrus notes, just as Anselmo Mendes would have adored. Light, elegant and brimming with a lively acidity, it’s a seriously worthwhile purchase and perfect for a refreshing pairing with grilled fish or a seafood salad.
