FOOD MATCHING NOTE:
This wine pairs perfectly with grilled fish dishes. Try a robalo grelhado (grilled seabass) accompanied by a light salada mista (mixed salad). Shellfish also pairs well, such as sapateira (stone crab) mexilhões (mussels) and ameijoas (clams) as well as soft and creamy sheep and goats milk cheese.
TASTING NOTE:
A blend of 70% Encruzado plus Bical from 25 year old, high altitude vines, the wine was fermented in French oak and aged on lees for 8 months to develop notes of flint and minerality, arising among white fruit and flowery aromas. Encruzado is their finest white grape.
