What The Fellas Say
This is like that lovely scene at the end of Visconti’s The Leopard when they’re all dancing in the ballroom…Burt Lancaster, Claudia Cardinale, Alain Delon. Like that swirling, magical dance, the winemakers have stylishly blended several varietals and old vine grapes to tell the story of their land – elegant, crystalline, timeless.
Region: Douro
The wines of the Douro Valley are known for their depth, complexity, and aging potential. The soil is predominantly schist, a type of metamorphic rock that retains heat and helps to ripen the grapes. The region’s unique terroir, combined with the use of indigenous grape varieties and traditional winemaking techniques, create wines that are rich, complex, and full of character.
What The Sommelier Says
Citrine-colored wine with aromas of white fruit, orange blossom and wet stone. Intense in the mouth, with a crisp acidity and a long finish.
Pairs well with…
