With a good dose of creamy Encruzado that is freshened by Bical, this wine is well balanced and deliciously textured. Aging in wood for nine months has given the wine a broad character, open and generous. The texture takes its cue from Dão granite, offering minerality as a contrast to the fruit. Drink the wine now.

A flavorful, spicy and layered white with aromas of dried lemons, toast, spiced apples, cloves and basil. Flinty notes come through. Medium to full body, with bright acidity and phenolic, compact layers. Drink now or hold.
