- Viniculture]White grape variety.
- [Winemaker]Wine produced from this grape.
It is one of Portugal's most valuable white grape varieties, an excellent grape variety, considered a national pilot variety, a rebel variety with a strong personality, in Colares it produces, by itself, balanced wines of great vivacity, capable of pleasantly stimulating the palate.
It has an open citrus colour. When young it presents citrus notes, sometimes some mineral, being moderately intense. With ageing develops aromas of honey and paraffin. In the mouth it is acidulous with fruit notes of excellent complexity. Very fresh, due to its natural acidity, and aromatically intense.
Aging: In American and French oak barrels.
From an oenological point of view, it is without doubt one of the most valuable Portuguese white grape varieties.
