Quinta Do Gradil Tardia Branco

Description

“This wine, aptly named ‘Gradil Tardia,’ seems to have dreamt of the desert, with hints of dates and raisins lingering on the palate. Harvested at dawn, under the cover of secrecy, it’s matured in a French oak barrique that’s perhaps seen better days – a charmingly rustic touch. The resulting wine is unexpectedly luscious and enveloping, demonstrating a remarkable freshness that almost begs the question of whether it's *too* refined for a simple white. A truly delightful pairing would be with some aged sheep’s cheese or a dark chocolate – a combination that, undoubtedly, would delight the winemaker’s discerning palate.”
