Casal da Coelheira sits in the Tejo, one of Portugal's most compelling white wine regions, where Atlantic breezes keep the heat honest and the grapes hold on to their freshness. The 2022 vintage gave Portugal warm, dry conditions with good diurnal range, and you can taste that balance here — ripe fruit without excess, acidity without austerity. It's in a lovely place right now, with just enough freshness to keep things lively through 2029. Pour it alongside a whole roast sea bass or a plate of creamy bacalhau à brás and it will repay you handsomely.
