Pormenor 'A de Arinto' Douro White 2021
This Arinto gets its edge from a hands-on approach: foot-trodden, whole-bunch macerated, then left to ferment au naturel in seasoned French oak. It lounges there for 10 months with its indigenous yeasts, skipping the clean-up for a raw, unfiltered experience that promises to evolve with age. It pours a crisp straw yellow and unfurls scents of dry grass and crisp apple, touched by a whisper of oak. The sip is a splash of minerality and bold citrus, tight with a lively acidity that keeps things interesting. It’s got the body to stand up to its zesty soul and a finish that lingers, making each glass a fresh discovery. Perfect for the discerning palate looking for something authentically offbeat.
