A clean, bright Chardonnay with an attractive and intense yellow colour, that impresses for its concentration and deep flavour exhibiting complex tropical fruit aromas of pineapple, peach and pair combined with oaky nuances and butterish notes. Excellent acidity, refreshing and well balanced, seems to linger forever.
Quinta de Cidrô is located at São João da Pesqueira which is one of the most highly regarded areas of Douro Valley. Throughout the last 20 years, Cidrô has been transformed into an experimental-model vineyard for the entire region. In virgin soils, cutting edge techniques were employed to plant 150 ha of the best varieties, creating one of the largest surfaces of single vineyard in the entire Douro Region. In the most privileged location, international varieties perform equally well as the local grapes. Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Pinot Noir, and the adaptable Cabernet Sauvignon are some of the foreign varieties that here express their best qualities when vinified by the extensive winemaking know-how present at the Company. The wine Quinta de Cidrô Chardonnay was the first result of the ongoing experimentation-taking place at this vineyard.
