Quinta dos Avidagos White 2021 Grande Reserva
An extraordinary white wine that captures the essence of the Douro region. The wine is creamy and lively, with notes of ripe white fruit and stone fruit, complemented by floral notes, herbs, dried fruit and spices, with a powerful acidity and a firm, creamy texture that makes the wine supple. The wine is precise and bright, with a long and persistent finish with hints of citrus, peaches and pears.

After complete destemming, the wine undergoes a cold pre-maceration and temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine is aged for 16 months in oak barrels, which gives it complexity and balance. This wine is not filtered or cold stabilized.

Critics & Awards
92/100 - Wine Enthusiast Tasted: Apr 2024
Long barrel aging—an unusual 16 months—has given this wine a strong toasty character. The fruit is still muted. Cool freshness and citrus acidity in the fruit will balance with the toast, so just wait and drink from 2026.
