Old House Grande Reserva Branco
Description

Reviews and awards:
90 points Wine Magazine.

The aroma is dominated by vegetal, citrus, and stone fruit notes. On the palate, the wine is lively, enveloping, and creamy, with the oak and acidity in perfect harmony.

Winemaking:
Hand-harvested in early September into 20kg boxes. Pre-selected grapes from the best vineyards on the Favaios plateau. Pre-fermentation maceration for 4 days in a cold chamber, followed by gentle pressing to obtain the free-run juice. The Gouveio and Viosinho wines (90% of the blend) ferment and age in first and second-year barrels for 12 months. The Arinto and Rabigato (remaining 10% of the blend) ferment and age in stainless steel for 12 months. After the final blend, aging in stainless steel continues for a further 6 months, with regular stirring of the fine lees.
