Product details
The wine year was marked by a mild winter, but with very high levels of rainfall and humidity in the spring, which lasted until the beginning of summer. Despite the pressure these climatic conditions put on the vines, as a result of the biodynamic practices applied, which created a high level of resistance, any damage to the plant was completely avoided. As a result of these weather conditions, the harvest only started on 12 September, which was late, as a result of the delay in the grapes' ripening process. Even so, it was carried out without precipitation, which improved the concentration of the grapes. The wine was vinified in temperature-controlled granite vats and after fermentation it aged for 4 years in an old vat and 2 years in the bottle.

Tasting Notes:
Quinta da Lomba Garrafeira White is characterised by its vitality, elegance and acidity. This wine comes from the old vines of Quinta da Lomba, a magical place on the slopes of the Serra da Estrela. The nose reflects the freshness and complexity of the Dão, and places its whites in the world class of serious wines. Notes of pineapple, apricot and citrus fruit are revealed together with a slightly smoky character, very well integrated wood and nuances of vanilla pods. On the palate, it's impressive. Elegant but structured, savoury and spicy. The acidity is reminiscent of granite soils, giving it freshness and a persistent, complex finish. A very serious and distinctive white wine that will evolve very well in the bottle, to be enjoyed in Burgundy-style glasses.
