Esporão Colheita Branco is a perfect match for seafood, salads, and light dishes, making it a versatile and elegant choice for any occasion.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Esporão Colheita Branco is a delightful white wine from Portugal.On the nose, aromas of white peach, apricot, and citrus blossom tantalize the senses. On the palate, the wine is crisp and refreshing, with flavors of lemon, honey, and white flowers. The finish is pleasingly balanced and zesty, with a subtle mineral undertone. Enjoy this bright and lively Portuguese white wine on its own or with light, seafood-based dishes.
