An untraditional macerated white from Duoro. The grapes spend about 10 macerating, after which the must is pressed onto 500-liter oak barrels. The wine is firm but not overly grippy, and the acidity is combined with slightly aromatic fruit. Not your typical white wine from the region, a fantastic experiment.
