Lento Vinhas Velhas Branco

Description

“Lento Vinhas Velhas” – a charming reminder that the Douro Valley still holds a few delightful secrets. Crafted from vines nearing a century old and benefitting from a refreshing high altitude, this wine isn’t about flashy extravagance. It’s rooted in the straightforward honesty of its indigenous Rabigato, Viosinho, and Gouveio grapes, alongside the powerful influence of the granite and sandy terroir. The spontaneous fermentation ensures that the wine’s vibrant minerality and acidity remain front and centre, resisting any temptation to be masked by oak. Quite simply, it’s a remarkable testament to the Douro’s rich history – and pairs beautifully with grilled white fish or a seafood rice dish.”
