Quinta Do Paral Vinhas Velhas Branco

Description

This wine, from Quinta do Paral, clearly benefitted from a crash course in refinement. The grapes were gently sorted – a hallmark of careful selection – and the juice underwent a delicate clarification before ageing in French oak barrels, a touch that undoubtedly complements the Antão Vaz grapes. Controlled fermentation ensures the character of the varietal remains true, while six months on the lees adds a layer of complexity, promising a truly memorable finish. Excellent with fresh, grilled fish, or perhaps paired with a good book and a moment of quiet contemplation.
