A new creation from Jorge and Sandra, from vineyards at six hundred metres in the north of the Douro — and that altitude is the whole story. In a valley notorious for its heat, six hundred metres makes for cool nights and therefore for acidity that stays upright. Viosinho, Gouveio and Arinto, pressed on the pneumatic press, four weeks of cold fermentation in steel and six months of ageing in steel. No oak, nothing to mask the altitude: at weight six, the lightest white Douro we have.
