Quinta Do Couquinho 1º Ensaio Branco

Description

This Couquinho 1st Vintage is a sneaky little white that arrives with a vibrant lemon hue. The nose, clearly benefiting from barrel ageing, offers hints of smouldering wood, balanced by vanilla and a touch of butter – perfect for accompanying grilled fish. On the palate, the acidity is assertive, wonderfully offset by a full, rounded mouthfeel and a lingering, crisp finish. A truly elegant wine, showcasing the intensity and persistence you’d expect from a Douro producer with a strong reputation.
