Casal Santa Maria Colares 2011 White
It is a rich wine with Atlantic notes. On the nose there are notes of white fruits, almonds and honey as well as aromas of aniseed, tangerine jam and pollen. With an elegant attack, the wine takes us to the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean, a lively acidity with a touch of subtle tangerine, ending with a long and intense finish.
Casal Santa Maria is located in the historic region of Colares, on the slopes of Sintra Hill, 2 km from Cabo da Roca − the most Western point in Europe. The wine production in our Quinta was interrupted at the beginning of the 20th century. After 100 years, we brought our vineyards back to life, modernized our cellar and produce red and white wines in a traditional way with high quality and national and international recognition.
