Quinta de Saes 2022 Late Release Encruzado
Still very young anno 2023, with citrus fruit, grapefruit and mineral notes involved with mild toasted wood. Voluminous and expressive mouth, with fantastic acidity, mineral end cheerful, crisp, and long. Álvaro and Maria Castro are, in our humble opinion, Dão's best winemakers and we are not alone with this vision.

Critics & Awards
90/100 - Wine Enthusiast Tasted 2023
Here's a perfumed white wine that is fruity with acidity. Made from 100% Encruzado, it is has the right richness and toasty edge that brings out the quality of the fruit. Drink now. — Roger Voss
