Azores Wine Company, Verdelho O Original

The Verdelho grapes are harvested manually in 40kg baskets. The whole bunches are pressed and a natural racking occurred within 24 hours. The fermentation occurs in small stainless steel vats. It has aromas of lime zest and pineapple with hints of ripe apple and orange blossom all playing second fiddle to wet stone, salt and mineral notes. Great depth and length; powerful yet restrained and tightly wound.
