60% Viosinho; 40% Verdelho. Pale lemon color, clear and bright, and opens with a remarkably focused and expressive aromatic profile. Notes of fresh citrus, lime, grapefruit, and citrus peel, are layered with jasmine, honeysuckle, orange blossom, honey, and subtle hints of sandalwood, toast, char, and vanilla, all supported by a vibrant mineral core. On the palate, the wine is dry, fresh, and precise, revealing flavors of honeydew melon, pineapple, apple, and pear, followed by floral tones of jasmine and honeysuckle, and elegant pastry-driven nuances of vanilla butter and marzipan. High, lively acidity brings energy and lift, while the full-bodied structure and layered texture give the wine depth and balance. Seamlessly integrated and refined, the flavors unfold gradually, telling a story that culminates in a long, welcoming, and persistent finish, highlighting both its food-friendly nature and excellent potential for aging.

Food Pairing: Grilled or roasted fish, scallops, lobster with butter, shrimp, roast chicken, turkey, pork loin, creamy pasta dishes, risotto, mushroom dishes, aged Gruyère, Comté, Brie, almond-based dishes
