Quinta do Cidrô Sauvignon Blanc Branco 2022

The Quinta de Cidrô Sauvignon Blanc was one of the first experiments we carried out at the Quinta and which rapidly grew to become our most popular white wine. This Sauvignon Blanc unites the best of the two worlds: on one side the Douro’s power and concentration while on the other side, the elegance and character of this famous French variety.

Grape Varieties: Sauvignon Blanc
