Quinta da Extrema (Edição I) 2016 White
Winemaking
Granite soils give the wine a beautiful minerality. The vineyard positioned at over 600 meters adds to the overall freshness and the Viosinho, Rabigato and Verdelho grape varieties provide a lot of character, citrus aromas along with apple notes and subtle floral touches. The wine fermented and was aged in old oak, showing creamy, sophisticated texture and a lot of complexity.
