Merchant's description

This Terroir edition has a citrus yellow colour with a pleasant fruity and floral aroma with mineral notes. In the mouth it is full-bodied and fresh with a long and persistent finish. A wine made for seafood. Coming from the best plots of this estate, the grapes of the Alvarinho variety were destemmed and gently pressed. Fermented in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature for approximately 15 days.
