Quinta do Monte d’Oiro White 2018

It is a blend of Arinto, Viognier and Marsanne from the Lisbon region in an area where the wind is a constant (if it wasn’t Lisbon…).
It is so fresh and full of aromas of citrus but at the same time honey with a good texture, elegant and spicy finish.

Quinta do Monte d'Oiro

Quinta do Monte d'Oiro ('Hill of Gold Estate') is located in the Lisbon region, 50 km north of the Portuguese capital, nestled between the Montejunto mountains and 20 kilometers from the Atlantic ocean. The terroir is a combination of limestone and clay soil, wiht a Mediterranean micro-climate (similar to the Rhône's Mistral), enabling slow ripening, natural acidity, moderate alcohol level and smooth tannins.
