Quinta de Sant'Ana Branco
Fernão Pires aged for 6 months in stainless steel tank and Arinto for 6 months in French oak barrel before blending the two lots and bottling.
Tasting Notes:
Pale citric yellow. Expressive aromatic floral and stone fruit notes verging on tropical from the Fernão Pires component. This variety also gives weight and mouthfeel. The Arinto provides balancing acidity and citric flavours with structure from the ageing in oak.
