Tasting notes
This Burmester White port presents a vivid citrus colour with greenish reflections. Rich and complex nose, dominated by floral aromas and intense fruit expression. Soft and silky on the palate, it shows great freshness, good balance and sophisticated elegance.


Vinification
Hand-picked at the optimum time, the grapes are then destemmed, crushed and converted into wine through a process of careful maceration, enhanced by constant churning during fermentation. This takes place in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature (between 16-18°C) until the right degree of sweetness (baumé) is achieved. At this point, grape brandy is added to create the final fortified wine. Made by blending wines of different harvests, with different levels of maturation in stainless steel and wood for a minimum of 3 years, the result is a rich and aromatic wine, with the perfect level of sweetness.

Food Pairing:
Excellent apéritif, to be served chilled.
