Montes Claros Reserva Branco 2020 Adega de Borba

€ 12.00

This elegant white wine has a greenish to golden color. The aroma is intense, complex, elegant in character, suggesting notes of tropical fruits, pineapple and light vanilla, with a subtle presence of French oak. It is balanced in the mouth and the palate is soft, refreshing due to acidity and persistent citrus and tropical fruits in the long finish.

Montes Claros wine range, one of the oldest and most recognized brands in Portugal thanks to the consistency of its quality, since 1945.

This brand appeared on the market in the late 40s of the last century, with the symbolism of the “Montes Claros Monument” that pays homage to the important Portuguese victory in the Battle of Montes Claros, achieved over the Castilian army, in the site with the same name, in 1655
