Dona Berta Vinhas do Avô 2023 White Wine

"Dona Berta Vinhas do Avô Branco is an elegant Douro wine with a delicate and fresh aroma, featuring notes of fruit, wildflowers and a subtle hint of spices. It boasts a harmonious acidity and creamy texture, making it ideal for both young consumption and aging."

Dona Berta Vinhas do Avõ White is a tranquil white wine produced by Hernâni Verdelho, under the Dona Berta brand. It hails from the Douro region in Portugal and is a blend of grape varieties from a century-old vineyard. This wine boasts a 13.5% alcohol content, achieved through a unique fermentation process that involves a third in Seguin Moreau French oak and the rest in stainless steel vats at approximately 18°C, with minimal sulfur intervention.

When it comes to consumption and pairing, this wine's versatility shines through. If served between 8-10°C, it is perfect for drinking young, matched ideally with light seafood dishes. If aged for more than three years and served at 10-12°C, it pairs well with poultry dishes or cured, spiced cheeses. Despite its delicacy when consumed young, Dona Berta Vinhas do Avõ White demonstrates a robust structure and acidity that allows for significant aging potential.
