Quinta Da Fata Encruzado Branco

Description

This Quinta da Fata Encruzado certainly demands a bit of attention – hand-harvested with careful transport in small boxes, you see. The slow, 15°C fermentation with lees stirring (*batonnage*) clearly adds layers of complexity. The result is a vibrant, intense white with those characteristic flinty notes, reminiscent of the riverbank, and a peculiar “powder” hint that surprisingly recalls oak. Experts predict it will age beautifully, offering plenty of years ahead – a perfect match for grilled white fish or a seafood rice dish, wouldn’t you say?
