Julian Reynolds Arinto Reserva Branco 2023

Grape Varieties: 100% Arinto

Terroir: Schist ground, smooth undulations with climatic influences of the Mountains of São Mamede. This Vineyard is at 800m of altitude. The drastic temperature contrast from day to night influences a good maturation of the grapes.

Tasting notes: Color: citric, slightly auburn Aroma: Tropical with notes of pineapple. Taste: Round, full of fresh fruit, elegant and persistent.

Viticulture and Enology: Main focus on grape quality. Integrated production with several selective thinning to reduce yield up to 4,000kg / ha. Manual harvesting. Pressing of the berries, cleaned and separated castes, followed by the decanting of the must. Fermentation with own yeasts and temperature controlled for a long period. Minimum application of sulfites. Bottling and stage of wine in the bottle in the state.

Suggestions: Ideal for shellfish and grilled blue fish and a very refreshing wine on its own, for the summer. Its powerful aroma even permits to have it “on the rock” as an appetitive.

Winemaker: Nelson Martins
