Vira Cabecas Branco [Organic]

Hand-picked harvest from 16th to the 24th of August. Grapes crushed, pressed, & must decanted. Natural fermentation & ageing for 12 months in very old oak barrels (225 litres). No malolactic, without fining & filtering.

This is probably the most unctuous of João’s wines. It has a richness & depth that not many wines have with the balance in structure making it a tremendous wine.

Vira Cabecas Branco is a weighty wine where lots of melon & honey come through on the nose & palate. Deep in flavour but with mass appeal as the acidity & minerality of it leaves a long lasting finish.

Matches well with a selection of poultry, game & white fish recipes. It is particularly well matched with white wine sauces with intense herbs such as marjoram & tarragon. Wonderful with warm root vegetables as well as with creamy textured cheeses.
