Quinta Sá De Baixo Primeiras Barricas Branco

Description

Right then, let’s have a look at this “Primeiras Barricas” from Quinta Sá de Baixo. It’s clearly a bold statement, isn’t it? Crafted from Viosinho and Gouveio, with a whisper of Malvasia Fina, this wine undergoes the traditional grape skin maceration before a twelve-month maturation in French oak – and, crucially, *on its lees*. The result is a seriously vibrant white with a refreshing mineral character and citrus notes, boasting a generous body and a delightfully lively acidity. Perfect with some freshly caught seafood and a generous helping of rice with shellfish, of course.
