AILALÁ WHITE
Dry young white wine, a single-varietal Treixadura made from a selection of vineyards across different areas of the Ribeiro D.O., growing on diverse soils, mainly granite, sand and clay (sábrego). Ailalá offers a pure and pristine expression of Treixadura, fresh and expressive, faithfully reflecting the Atlantic character of Ribeiro.
Tasting notes: Quite golden in color with wonderful reflections of light – very lively color. The aromatics on this wine are super clean and powerful with lemon curd, apricot, white flowers and seashells. Some wintergreen mint/fennel/cloves notes. Ripe melon and sweet lemon. Lots of body. Very dense, needs time. In the mouth notes of apricot, white peach, and peche de vigne. Just picked crunchy peach notes. Lots of zing, some tangerine, blood orange notes. Some lemon and grapefruit peel. Very persistent. Incredible relative value compared to other white wine of this ilk.
