Tasting note

品飲筆記：這款白酒充滿個性，前調有明顯煙燻與烤香草氣息，像是烤龍蒿與麥芽的混合，伴隨乾燥檸檬皮與一抹香脂感。入口鮮爽俐落，但酒體飽滿有結構，中段飽和度十足，收尾則是清晰的礦感與長延續的「汁感」。 酒莊與釀造：來自瓦爾德拉斯地區的小型酒莊，釀酒方式偏好低干預、以手工採收與自然發酵為主。酒廠著力保留果實原貌，輕柔澄清、在中性容器及酒泥中陳放以增加口感厚度，而不搶走香氣的細緻。 葡萄園環境：葡萄園位於高地與斜坡地帶，受大西洋氣候影響，日夜溫差大，土壤礦物質豐富，幫助保留鮮明酸度與石質感。管理精細、產量受控，成就集中而有層次的風味。 飲用建議：建議稍微醒30分鐘，溫度偏低冷飲能更顯清新。搭配海鮮（尤其甲殼類）、燒烤魚、風味小吃或輕度香料料理都非常合拍。

Tasting Note: A striking, full-bodied white with a smoky, grilled-herb nose—think tarragon and a malty edge—over dried lemon peel and a light savoury hint. On the palate it is fresh and sleek yet structured, showing concentrated mid-palate weight and a long, sappy, mineral finish. Producer Notes: From a boutique Valdeorras producer focused on expressive, low-intervention wines. The 2020 vintage displays the house’s signature balance of texture and clarity, delivering a wine that drinks beautifully now but can also reward short-term cellaring. Winemaking: Hand-harvested fruit is treated with minimal intervention in the cellar: native yeast fermentations, gentle extraction and careful ageing in neutral vessels and on lees to build texture without masking the varietal character. The approach emphasises freshness, saline minerality and a layered palate. Vineyard: Sourced from steep, well-exposed sites in Valdeorras where cool Atlantic influences and mineral-rich soils preserve vibrant acidity and give that flinty, stony backbone. Low yields and attentive viticulture bring concentrated, ripe flavors with a refined, savoury edge. Serve lightly chilled and consider a 20–40 minute decant to open the aromatics. Excellent with shellfish, lobster, grilled fish and a variety of Mediterranean tapas.
