Passadouro Branco 2022

Grape Varieties: 56% Códega de Larinho, 20% Fernão Pires, 12% Viosinho, 12% Rabigato.

Tasting Notes: Passadouro white 2022 is characterized by its intense fruity character coupled with some very attractive floral notes and white pulp fruit. Very elegant and balanced on the palate. This delicious fruit and acidity are all wrapped in subtle vanilla and oaky undertones from the barrel fermentation and ageing. A long aftertaste follows.

Vinification: 18% of this wine was fermented in French oak barrels for a period of 24 days at temperatures between 15 and 17°C. The rest was fermented in stainless steel tanks at slightly lower temperatures. No malolactic fermentation. Cultured yeasts are used.

Maturing: Bâtonnage is done for three months once a week after fermentation.
