Vall Da Nogueirinha Reserva Branco

Description

This Vall da Nogueirinha Reserva is a delightful surprise, proving the Douro can certainly be refined. After its time in oak, it unfolds with lovely floral notes and dark berry nuances, a testament to the influence of Viosinho and Rabigato. Don't mistake this for a delicate flirtation, though – the palate is surprisingly complex, boasting a creamy texture that’s beautifully balanced by a persistent mineral finish, reflecting the exceptional terroir. A project from Marco Almeida Correia, as he aptly puts it, “honouring traditional Douro blends” – ideal with grilled fish and cured meats.
