Herdade Da Comporta White

Reviews and awards:
15 points Grandes Escolhas Wine;
Recommended by the Decanter World Wine Awards 2013 (Other colheitas ).

Located a short distance from the Atlantic Ocean, our vineyard benefits from the mild coastal climate, allowing for balanced ripening. It is situated in an east-west oriented valley, with good sun exposure and bordered by umbrella pines that protect it from the strong summer winds.

The soil and climate conditions are excellent with regard to the phytosanitary health of the vines, allowing the colheita of healthy, high-quality grapes produced using integrated production methods.

Color: yellowish green

Flavor and Aroma: Lively nose, with notes of lemon and tropical fruits. Medium-bodied, with a good balance of lemon, tropical fruit (from the Antão Vaz grape) and light, refreshing acidity (thanks to the presence of Arinto), and a long finish. On the nose, a combination of very ripe fruit with oak character. Elegant, with concentrated fruit, well-structured tannins and a long, complex finish.
