Arinto, Verdelho
75cl * 13.5% ABV * Alentejo, Portugal
In Portuguese Fonte means source of water or fountain, and Souto is a chestnut grove. The combination of the two words in the estates name symbolises the abundance of water from the estates natural springs and its beautiful chestnut groves. The Fonte Souto Estate white wine embodies all the strengths of the property’s unique terroir. The freshness and balance afforded by the altitude; the concentration, which derives from mature, low-yielding vines, and the complexity and structure provided by the barrel fermentation sur-lie with btonnage. This white allows for maximum expression of the Arinto, widely regarded as Portugal’s finest white grape variety and has a smaller Verdelho component.
This stunning and aromatic white wine from the mountainous Alentejo region of Portugal embodiesa year of elegance, with the acidity and aromatic exuberance expected from a cooler year.There are lots of lemon zest and stone character with some fresh herbs such as lemongrass anda touch of flint character. Well-integrated barrel and bottle aging offershoneysuckle, soft butterscotch notesand a delicate touch of vanilla.
On the palate, the fruit is crisp and focused with succulent citrusy notes, white plum and peach, as well as some vanilla and wild white flowers in the background. The medium-to-full-body offers alovely weight with a layered and creamy texture. A delightful Portuguese white that could rival a white Burgundy that is only going to improve with age. Pair with fish cakes, poultry dishes and anything with a creamy sauce.
