This fresh, dry white is a blend of varieties indigenous to Portugal's Douro valley including Arinto (known to retain freshness even in hot conditions) and Gouveio (known as Godello in northern Spain).
The Gouveio, Viosinho and Arinto grapes, indigenous to the north of Portugal, grow in fine soils with some schist. The vineyards are situated near Cambres, in the western part of the Douro valley, south of the river. Some of the vines are over 50 years old, and they enjoy a warm and dry climate. After harvesting the grapes are fermented in stainless steel at controlled temperatures.
Barao da Varzea do Douro Colheita Douro Branco has citrus aromas with delicate floral notes and hints of white peach. A crisp white with apple and lemon peel characters, juicy acidity, and a refreshing finish.
Enjoy with salads, fish and pork dishes.
