Mainova Moinante Branco Curtimanta 2023
Fresh and vibrant white wine that showcases the elegance and complexity of Portugal's growing winemaking prowess. Produced in the esteemed Douro Valley, this wine embodies the region's unique terroir, blending tradition with modern techniques.
The 2023 vintage is a dynamic expression of the Moinante grape variety, a rare and indigenous white grape that’s known for its crisp acidity and aromatic profile. The wine offers a bouquet of citrus fruits—think zesty lemon and grapefruit—alongside subtle floral notes of white blossom and hints of green apple. There’s an underlying minerality, likely a product of the region’s rich schist soils, giving the wine a refreshing edge and a clean finish.
On the palate, Mainova Moinante Branco Curtimanta 2023 delivers a well-balanced structure, with the acidity providing a lively mouthfeel while the fruit notes carry through with finesse. The wine’s elegance is further enhanced by its careful winemaking process, which includes fermentation in stainless steel to preserve the purity of the fruit.
Perfect as an aperitif or paired with seafood, light salads, or soft cheeses, this wine is a testament to the potential of Portuguese whites, offering both accessibility and sophistication in a single glass.
