Muros Antigos Branco

Description

This Muros Antigos is a proper undertaking, it seems. Harvesting entire clusters – 20kgs a box – clearly indicates a very close relationship with the vine, followed by a meticulous racking at 12°C for 48 hours. The fermentation, carried out in stainless steel tanks, was evidently very precise, with a watchful eye on temperature. Those four months on lees, punctuated by regular stirring, deliver a vibrant texture and a delightfully bracing acidity, very much in keeping with the classic Vinho Verde style – ideal with a perfectly grilled fish and a squeeze of lemon.
