Lento Branco

Description

Lento With origin in old vines of an average age of 90 years and above 500 m altitude, hand‑harvested with meticulous care, we produce a Douro full of precious subtleties. Poor, sandy, granite‑derived soils give a unique profile and an expression of an altitude Douro with unparalleled freshness. The grapes arrive at the cellar in 20 kg boxes and are gently pressed. The must is decanted at 8 °C for two to three days. Fermentation is spontaneous, using indigenous yeasts. In Lento, oak is not used, as we aim for a wine where minerality, acidity and freshness are symbols and expressions of terroir. A pure wine, unadorned. Lento – Slow goes far… Vinification: spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts at controlled temperature. Full‑lees ageing. Allergen information: contains sulfites. SKU: 106983
