Origin
Dão, Dão, Portugal

The grapes come from limestone soils in the Dão. The wine is made as a white wine fermented in French oak and then matured for 20 months on its fine lees in the same barrels. On the nose, white stone fruit combines with mineral reduction and subtle noble-wood notes. On the palate, it is dry, fresh and intense, with supporting acidity, a salty, long finish and a rather slender to medium body. The extended lees ageing is a distinctive feature of this wine.
