Waar serveer je ’m bij?
Seara Nova from a fifty-year-old vineyard on sandstone, with grapes that go to the cellar in twelve-kilo crates — the smaller the crate, the less the grapes at the bottom are crushed and the less juice oxidises before fermentation. Twelve months in used barrels. Ten degrees of alcohol: that is lower than just about every white wine in the shop, and it is not a shortcoming but a choice. Light-footed, mineral and far longer than you would expect at that alcohol.
