This Alvarinho from Melgaço and Monção is a delightfully perplexing wine, meticulously crafted as you’d expect from this notoriously demanding grape. Extended maceration – a full eight hours – and gentle pressing unlock a remarkable intensity alongside that signature mineral complexity we all adore. The five-month lees stirring (battonage) adds a layer of elegance only truly great grapes can achieve. It's a refreshingly persistent wine, clearly aiming to surprise you with every sip – and it probably succeeds. Seriously, it pairs brilliantly with grilled fish or shellfish; a wine of this calibre deserves a vibrant accompaniment, wouldn’t you agree?
