Vinho da Corda dos Profetas 2023 White Wine

Vinho da Corda dos Profetas White Wine presents golden yellow color, almost copper, very intense nose, caramelized salt, somewhere between a Madeira wine and a Jerez, unique and singular, with ferric, iodized and intense notes. On the palate, very full-bodied, super concentrated and very persistent

Vinho da corda was one of the ways in which "liqueurs" were prepared before the arrival of brandy in the mid-17th century. The vines, once planted closer to the sea, were able to reach other degrees of ripeness, allowing for a naturally concentrated must. The technique consisted of first separating the flor wine, which was clearer and fresher, and then, from the last pressing, removing the "vinho da corda" with a more golden and loaded appearance, so fashionable at the time. This Vinho da Corda comes from the sunny vineyards of Porto Santo and shows the island's potential for these rich, authentic and naturally oxidative wines
