Quinta dos Roques Encruzado, Dão 2023
Encruzado is fast becoming known for producing some of Portugal's top white wines. Quinta dos Roques was the first Dão estate to bottle encruzado as a single variety, back in 1998 and are now a benchmark for this unique white grape variety. This particular example was wild fermented, 20% in oak barrels. The oak adds a delicate layer of vanilla and nutmeg to the orange blossom, preserved lemon, toasted almond and quince notes on the nose. The palate is structured but plush, with focused acidity which is rounded out by the well-used oak. There are notes of apple crumble, vanilla pod and lemon on the palate, leading to a long finish. Fans of white Rioja will also enjoy this.
