Hugo Mendes Pitau White 2024

Product Info

Spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts, without the addition of oenological products. Only a very small amount of sulfur dioxide. A short aging in stainless steel, aiming to preserve the pure expression of the fruit and the year. Unfined wine, lightly filtered before bottling.

Grape varieties: Arinto, Fernão Pires, Vital, Viosinho and Alvarinho

Region: Tagus

Tasting Notes: Bright citrus yellow color, with slight greenish reflections. Complex and expressive aroma – combining the citrus and mineral side of Arinto and Alvarinho, the aromatic florality of Fernão Pires, the austere discretion of Vital, and the ripe stone fruit of Viosinho. An intense yet elegant nose, with layers ranging from lime and green apple to peach, white flower, and light honey. Fresh and vibrant entry, round, aromatic, and smooth midpalate. Firm structure and a certain elegant rusticity. Lingering, citrus-mineral finish with good tension.
