Herdade Grande Antão Vaz 2023 White Wine

5/ 5

<p></p><p>In Zambujeira do Mar, where the high temperatures of the Alentejo are mitigated by the Atlantic, the concentration typical of inland viticulture is balanced by the freshness and humidity of the sea, leading to ideal maturation. The grapes ripen, thus, in a slow and balanced way, with cool and wet winters, mild summers and the constant presence of the sea winds, creating wines where elegance overrides robustness.</p>

<p></p> <p>On the hot plains of the Baixo Alentejo, just a few kilometres from the city of Beja, is one of the oldest wine estates in the region. Its vineyards represent decades of history that Henrique Uva has preserved and farmed for many years and which he always wanted to develop as an independent producer.<br />In 2004, he achieved his dream, with the project that goes by the name of Henrique Uva/Herdade da Mingorra. The Winery is surrounded by 1,400 hectares of a landscape that can be considered exuberant, such is the diversity of plants and fauna, with several river basins forming veritable oases. The Winery is a true place of worship. A place where modernity and functionality can be found alongside indelible traditional techniques.</p>

<p></p> <p>Monte das Bagas de Ouro White Reserva is produced from the Antão Vaz grape variety.</p> <p>The Antão Vaz grape variety was the inspiration, the basis and the reason for this Reserva. Aromatically, it is expressive, intense and enveloping, with a predominance of tropical fruit flavours, lots of freshness and surprising acidity. Aging for 6 months in Hungarian oak barrels gives it complexity and structure, but also elegance and balance. A Reserva that finishes long, that persists and insists on winning us over...</p>

<p>Serving this wine at a temperature of 16º- 18º C is recommended to fully savor its intricate flavors. It is an excellent choice to accompany strong dishes such as game bean stew, duck rice, hare rice, a partridge dish known as "six hundred devils", a Portuguese steak, or even a board of soft cheeses from Azeitão or Serra. The clay soil in which the grapes were grown lends the wine additional complexity. The grapes were harvested manually in September and transported in 10 kg boxes to prevent crushing. The fermentation process took place in a stainless steel vat for three weeks, with the temperature controlled at 24º C. After alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged for 28 months in new French oak barrels, followed by additional aging in the bottle.</p>
