2020 Herdade Papa Leite C50 white
概要
Herdade Papa Leite C50 is a white wine produced by the Moscatel, Chenin Blanc, and Viognier grape varieties. It has a citrus yellow colour and elegant aromas, highlighting the notes of peach and honey. In the mouth, its mineral profile is enhanced and the soft texture is highlighted, ending with a lively and persistent freshness.
The Papa Leite Estate, located in Alter do Chão, in the heart of the Alto Alentejo, dates back to the 17th century and even today, one can still find traces of that time. After many families passed through there, it was Filipe Barreiros Cardoso who, in love with the property, acquired it, making an old dream of producing high-quality products come true with the support of his family and team. Thus the estate was expanded and revitalised, now boasting 320 hectares extended to the production of wine, olive oil, and cattle. The vines are planted in clay soils and the grapes are harvested at night and selected before entering the winery, where the production of wine with the best raw material obtained is guaranteed.
