Tapada Do Chaves Old Vines Branco

Description

This Tapada do Chaves, crafted from Arinto and Roupeiro, is a wine that’s clearly been around the block a few times. The straw and citrine hue immediately sets the stage, and the nose reveals a delightful complexity – think ripe tropical fruits mingling with a subtle hint of phosphorus, a clear nod to the terroir. On the palate, that complexity lingers beautifully, with mature fruit shining through, underpinned by a distinct minerality and a refreshing acidity that elevates its impressive length. Indeed, its “Grande Escolha” award well deserved; a wine perfect alongside grilled fish, or perhaps even a simple fruit salad.
