Quinta dos Roques QUINTA do CORREIO Branco Dao Portugal
Description: Quinta dos Roques pioneered the idea of varietal bottling in Portugal with their 1996 wines, and were probably responsible for the Touriga Nacional gold rush which followed. Despite their fame, Roques remain a small producer, with many of their bottlings not exceeding 1000 cases. With 12 different plots totalling 40 hectares this is a dynamic and exciting estate, making a sometimes bewildering array of different wines. This pale yellow coloured wine is a blend of local varietals including Encruzado, Cercial, Malvasia Fina and Bical. This has produced a fresh wine with a mineral nose dominated by grassy aromatics. Showing good balancing acidity and plenty of citrus fruit flavours that develop from the nose, this wine finishes with great zestyness. (12 x 75 cl)
