Vale Da Pia Branco

Description

This white wine is made from Rabigato, Códega do Larinho, and Arinto grapes, harvested manually and fermented exclusively in stainless‑steel tanks. It presents a lemony colour with greenish‑blue nuances, aromatic of tropical fruit and white‑fleshed fruit, and on the palate is fruity, fresh, and persistent. Quinta do Reguengo is located in the Douro Superior sub‑region, beside the Douro River in Pocinho, Vila Nova de Foz Côa, characterised by clay‑sodic soils with granite outcrops. These soils, combined with varied altitudes, exposures and grape varieties, are influenced by the warm, humid winds of the Douro valley and the cooler winds from Spain, creating excellent conditions for regular grape ripening. The winemaking is overseen by Pedro Branco, also the leading figure behind Família Silva Branco wines. (Illustrative image only)
