Tasting Notes

Costureiro White 2022 was made from the Gouveio, Donzelinho and Viosinho varieties, carefully selected on the coolest slopes of the Douro, on the Alijó/Carrazeda de Ansiães plateau, in plots of granite soil at an altitude of 550 m.

A vibrant nose with refined notes of stone fruit and citrus alongside well-integrated oak. The palate is fresh and full-bodied, with fine acidity and oak nuances. It shows a rich, creamy texture with a long, persistent finish.

Pairs with duck magret, duck rice, an oily fish or sushi. Serve between 10 °C and 12 °C.
