A blend of local grape varieties, the Claudia's white wine displays beautiful aromatic complexity in the glass, with notes of citrus, flint, and smoke. The full-bodied and elegant palate continues with freshness and a surprisingly smooth and rounded finish. A real treat!

About wine:
Claudia's Branco Reserve 2015 is a blend of 40% Viosinho, 30% Gouveio, 15% Fernão Pires, and 15% Arinto, aged for six months in second-use oak barrels. Quite solid on the mid-palate, the most important aspect here is its fine combination of depth, finesse, and freshness. It integrates the oak beautifully. Smooth and round, it drinks well on its own, but is even better with food. It finishes with a hint of iron. The concentration is subtle—it doesn't seem imposing—but it is quite present. This Douro Branco is understated, but hits all the right notes. It was not yet bottled at the time of tasting, but this was the final blend.
