Arinto

Spontaneous fermentationUnfiltered

Producer: Vinhos Desviso (Scott McLean & Marta Timóteo)
Colour: White
Last seen vintage: 2023
Grape varieties: Arinto
Origin: Lisboa, Lisboa, Portugal

The grapes were hand-harvested and rigorously selected. Spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts took place 70% in a concrete tank and 30% in used French oak casks. The wine then matured for ten months, 44% in wood and 56% in stainless steel, followed by three months of joint ageing in tank. It was neither fined nor filtered or stabilised. It can be expected to show a fresh, acidity-driven style with citrus and mineral notes, as well as some roundness from the cask component. Production was limited to 1,682 bottles.
