Quinta Dos Roques Encruzado, Dão 2022

Another example of what top quality native grapes can achieve in the right hands

• Light straw perfectly clear; with an elegant bouquet of fruits and a slight touch of resin.
• On the palate the first impression is of freshness but immediately you notice the great structure and complexity of the wine. The finish is very long and persistent.
• It's fair to say that Quinta dos Roques single-handedly revived the reputation of the Dao's finest white varietal, and still enjoy the reputation as the finest exponent of Encruzado.
• Increasingly, Luis Lourenco prefers to keep the oak element in the background, and let the grape's citrussy profile express itself as much as possible.
• It should be served at a temperature of 12-14ºC, and accompanying seafood, strong fish dishes and spicy food.
