Pó de Poeira White 2015

The possibility of producing high quality white and red grapes on the same quinta demonstrates once again the Douro’s enormous diversity and how this diversity can be found even on small properties. When we were preparing the soil for planting in 2004, we came across 1 hectare of land that had a completely different soil from the rest of the quinta - deeper, less stony, more fertile and with greater availability of water. This parcel is located in a more sheltered area, with fewer hours of exposure to the sun. It seemed clear to us that although what we had here was letter ‘A’ terroir (regarded as having first-rate potential for producing Port wine), we had an opportunity to produce excellent quality white grapes. As with the red, we have tried to make a wine with a unique personality, with an expressive aroma and the depth and freshness that characterise all our wines.
