Vieira De Sousa Branco

Description

This Vieira de Sousa from the Douro is a genuinely perplexing wine – you find yourself wondering, “How *do* they do it?” The promise of Grandes Escolhas isn’t misplaced, with a sweetness and freshness that utterly defies expectation. The winemaking’s use of aguardente provides a remarkable structure, a bold move that results in an incredibly complex wine. Extended grape skin contact – a touch of genius – extracts the maximum from the juice, while a dash of Verdelho and Rabigato adds a delightfully surprising layer. Pairs beautifully with soft sheep’s milk cheeses.
