Alvarelhão from Vinho Verde, Portugal; medium bodied and dry with notes of strawberry, raspberry, and hibiscus, hints of cashew with spicy vegetal undertones, with balanced acid, and a clean finish. Organic.
The grapes spend two days on their skins then are pressed to amphora for 10 weeks, then aged in stainless steel for 3 months. The producer uses ground chestnut flowers during maceration to stabilize the wine.
