This stunning Loureiro white is harvested by hand and then fermented spontaneously with the skins using wild yeasts in the clay amphorae. The young wine is then aged on the lees for 7 months before bottling. The result is a unique and unusual wine which is bursting with complex notes of beeswax, bitter almonds and ripe apricots and peaches.
Every wine in Mitchell & Son has been carefully selected, researched and taste tested by our team, so we stand behind each selection on our retail list. If you are not happy with a wine, a delivery, or any aspect of our service, please contact us and we will be only too happy to help you in any way we can.
