Pequenos Rebentos Alvarinho E Trajadura Branco 2022 Porto

Description

“Pequenos Rebentos clearly put a lot of energy into this wine, showcasing the boldness of Touriga Nacional alongside the refined elegance of Alvarinho. The meticulous hand-harvesting – transported in hefty 18-20kg crates – speaks volumes about their commitment to the fruit. A brief 4-hour maceration, achieved with a gentle pressing, hints at a desire to maximize flavour extraction without overdoing it. The controlled fermentation, held between 14-15°C, ensures precision, while the 15-day duration underlines a patient approach. It’s a wine destined to pair beautifully with grilled white fish, particularly one with a bright citrus note.”
