Quinta De Carapeços

Description

This Late Harvest from Quinta de Carapeços is undoubtedly a small masterpiece. Carapeços have truly pushed the boundaries with their Espadeiro – a grape variety that, it seems, holds an undeniably seductive potential for sweetness. The February harvest and full-cluster pressing result in an incredibly concentrated must, which then benefits from extended aging in the vineyard, developing remarkable complexity and elegance. It’s a fantastic pairing for foie gras, or perhaps a surprisingly delightful match with spiced pumpkin chutney – a boldness that Carapeços clearly embrace.
