Quinta de La Rosa Gouveio 2023 White Wine

The Quinta de La Rosa Gouveio White Wine is a unique and authentic blend, made entirely from 100% Gouveio grapes. All the grapes used in this wine are exclusively sourced from the renowned Cerejinha vineyard. The grapes undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks, which adds to the wine's crisp, clean profile. Following this, the wine is aged for a period of six months in French oak barrels. These barrels are 100% used wood, which imparts a subtle complexity to the final product, adding depth and character without overwhelming the wine's inherent fruitiness. This meticulous process ensures a wine that is as expressive and distinctive as the terroir from which it is born.

The Quinta de La Rosa Gouveio Branco is a fresh and elegant wine, characterized by firm acidity, citrus aromas, and notes of anise, with a long and harmonious finish. The wine exhibits a bright citrine color, signaling its freshness and visual clarity from the first moment. On the nose, it is highlighted by very clean citrus aromas, with notes of anise and a subtle mineral touch, typical of the schist soils of Douro. In the mouth, it reveals firm acidity and elegant tension, resulting in a harmonious profile. The wine is described as fresh and tense, reflecting the purity of the fruit and the careful vinification, which included fermentation in stainless steel vats and 6 months of aging in used French oak barrels. The finish is long and persistent, prolonging the sensation of freshness.
