<p></p><p>Quinta dos Termos is situated in the center of Portugal, on the slopes of the South slope of Serra da Estrela (highest mountain of Portugal - 2,000 m), thus protected from the cold north winds and sunny by its exposure to the South, reaching temperatures in the summer sometimes higher than 50ºC, which leads to a higher degree of maturation, giving rise to complex, aromatic wines of good consistency</p>

<p>Quinta do Casal Branco Reserva White Wine is a remarkable blend that exemplifies a contemporary and international wine style. Crafted from Fernão Pires, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gouveio grapes, this wine boasts an alcohol content of 12% vol. Its vibrant yellow hue, accented by greenish tints, sets the stage for a delightful tasting experience.<br /><br />The bouquet is enticing, characterized by an array of tropical fruit aromas, including pineapple, apricot, and peach. These fruity notes are complemented by fresh, zesty hints of lime and asparagus, creating a lively and inviting aroma profile. Upon tasting, the wine reveals subtle woody undertones from its aging process, which harmonize beautifully with the dominant fruit flavors. The Sauvignon Blanc contributes to the wine's bright, refreshing character, creating a lively mouthfeel. There is a commendable balance between the wine's richness and its acidity, leading to persistent fruit flavors that encourage another sip.<br /><br /><br />Quinta do Casal Branco Reserva White Wine is versatile and pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes. It's an excellent match for fresh seafood, poultry, or simply enjoyed on its own as a refreshing aperitif. <br /><br /></p>

<p></p><p>Inospito Vinhas Velhas Almendra Red Wine comes from an old vineyard, planted in 1850, between 200 and 250 metres above sea level, with grapes carefully harvested by hand. Poor schist soils contribute to a unique profile and an expression of a Douro interpreted as it was in the past, fresh, complex and with structure, without any tartaric correction. </p>

<p></p><p>Quinta do Javali Maria Luisa White Wine presents golden colour resulting from the maceration process. Peculiar andchallenging nose. It has a strong aromatic intensity, with notes of fruit of very mature yellow flesh (quince), amplified by the skin maceration. Highlights include notes of caramelized orange peel, crystallized honey, dried fruits and slight earthy and resinous suggestions. To support this aromatic richness fruit of a terroir of excellence, there are harmonious sweet notes of the barrel used of high quality. In the mouth, it is surprising the “acid nerve”, which combines a remarkable acidic freshness with some admirable mature tannins, which migrated smoothly from the whole bunches, which began fermentation in a typical Douro “Lagar” (Yes, in a Lagar! !). Persistence in the mouth is very long, with a positively mineral attack</p>
