Quinta Da Esperança Grande Reserva Branco

Description

This impressive reserve from Quinta da Esperança is a delightfully unconventional beast, thanks to its natural fermentation – a touch that certainly demands attention. The lees, held for a month, add a welcome layer of complexity, while the 25% of French oak promises a subtle vanilla note; let’s hope it’s worth the indulgence. On the palate, it’s a full-bodied wine with the grace that Grandes Escolhas (17 points) so eloquently described – quality fruit, a lingering finish, and a golden hue hinting at considerable aging potential. Wonderful with grilled fish or game.
