Cedro do Noval Blanc 2022 (750ml)

Pale straw with green reflections, the 2022 Cedro do Noval Blanc opens with an inviting nose of white peach, grapefruit, lemon verbena, and elderflower, laced with hints of crushed stone and fresh herbs. Sourced from high-altitude vineyards in the Douro Valley, the blend—principally Viosinho and Gouveio—is grown on schist soils that lend both freshness and mineral precision. Fermented and aged in stainless steel to preserve vibrancy, with a small portion seeing older oak for added texture, the wine is bright and expressive on the palate, revealing layers of citrus, green apple, and wet stone over a taut, saline frame. Acidity is vibrant yet well-integrated, driving a clean, energetic finish with lingering floral and mineral tones.
