Description
Herdade do Sobroso is located in Vidigueira in the Alentejo region. This is one of the oldest wine regions in Portugal. In the beautiful Alentejo, Herdade do Sobroso has a perfect location with its vineyards located on the banks of the Guadiana River and its tributary the Rio dos Patos or the River of the Ducks. The trademark is the ducks on the labels. It is the perfect setting for the ripening of the grapes and few vineyards have this luxury and this partly explains why this winery can make very beautiful wines because there is never any water debt. In addition to the fact that there is sufficient water, this region is the only one within the Alentejo that has the influence of the ocean, which ensures healthy ripening.
The herdade do sobroso Sobro Branco is a blend of the typical Portuguese grapes: Antão Vaz, Arinto, Verdelho and the Palomino grape. The grapes were picked by hand. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel barrels at a controlled temperature for 30 days, after which it is allowed to mature on its own lees. The Blanco Sobro (or Branco in Portuguese) has a straw yellow color and is very bright. This Portuguese white wine has a wonderfully fresh taste, fresh aromas of citrus and passion fruit. The wine is very elegant wine and has a good balance between the fruit and the acids. A delicious glass for any occasion and highly recommended with crustaceans and shellfish and with white fish with a bit of spiciness.
