Morgado De Santa Catherina Branco

Description

This Morgado de Santa Catherina, showcasing the distinct character of its Arinto grapes, arrives with a delightfully bold expression – a prolonged maceration that clearly isn't shy about letting its personality shine through. Following a generous decant, the wine reveals a vibrant and compelling character, undoubtedly enhanced by the influence of 30% newly-toasted French oak barrels. The result is an incredibly food-friendly wine, particularly well-suited to a perfectly grilled fish. A final period in stainless steel tanks adds a welcome burst of freshness, while the six months spent ageing “sur lie” contribute to the wine’s considerable complexity.
