VERDELHO THE ORIGINAL BY ANTÓNIO MAÇANITA WHITE 2019

Grape Varieties: 100% Verdelho “o Original”, from the islands.

Tasting Note: Fresh, mineral and saline attack, it has the grape varietals and Azorean Terroir matrix, but with much more exhuberant, tropical aroma of the azorean pineapple and passion fruit, fresh fruit with acidity. It’s not the Verdelho-Gouveio, it’s not the Verdelho-Verdejo, it is the Verdelho-Verdelho, the Original.

Winemaking: Manual selective harvest in 20Kg baskets, pressing of whole bunch, transfer after 24h to 600-1000L fermentation vats.

Pairing:Fresh, very mineral and saline. Ideal partner for oysters, barnacles and clams. It also works with grilled fish, salads and fresh seafood.

Winemaker: António Maçanita.
