Wine “Destalo” White, Vinho Verde DOC, 2020

The label of semi-dry white wine “Destalo” White, Vinho Verde DOC depicts an otter with a glass of wine. The otter is perfectly adapted to its habitat and microclimate, it is perfectly oriented among valleys, rivers, mountains. The cool otter depicted on the label personifies the surrounding nature, without which a light, fresh, slightly playful Vinho Verde would have been impossible.

The wine is made from a blend of grapes of the autochthonous Portuguese varieties – Arinto, Loureiro and Trajadura. Each variety brings its own flavor to the overall blend. Arinto gives lightness, youth, brightness, citrus notes and mineral complexity. Trajadura is a typical Iberian variety, it gives energy, even some daring taste and notes of peach, apricot, fragrant ripe pear. The noble Loureiro harmonizes and softens the blend, giving it aristocratic touches of fresh orange and linden blossom.
