Description: Tiago Sampaio is a Portugese winemaker in the Douro Valley however he's doing everything a little bit differently. Rather than farming near the river he is growing at high altitude which helps slow down ripening, increase complexity and maintain freshness in the wines. Another differing factor is the soil type, his vines are growing in a shist / clay / granite mix in contrast to the more usual shist / slate soils elsewhere.
A light and zingy white with a punchy acidity. Pear with notes of gooseberry and a lingering minerality.
