Quinta de Tourais - Lilipop - Ânfora Branco

This intriguing white wine is a field blend showcasing a dynamic mix of Viosinho, Rabigato, Gouveio, and Esgana Cão grapes from 15-20 year old vines. Hand-harvested in small boxes, the grapes undergo a unique fermentation process. Indigenous yeasts work their magic in clay amphorae alongside the skins for six days, extracting depth and texture. Following fermentation, the wine spends six months aging in used French oak barrels on its lees, further adding complexity. The result? A captivatingly complex wine bursting with aromas of stone fruit and floral notes, complemented by a mineral backbone and a harmonious integration of clay and oak. Balanced and fresh, it boasts a lengthy finish, ensuring a lasting impression.
