"This is gorgeously styled and elegantly complex, showing apricot, fig, lemon peel and oatmeal characters on the nose, followed by a wonderfully weighted palate delivering rich texture and fleshy mouthfeel. Generous and savoury with a lengthy engaging finish. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2021

"Bright, pale yellow, even colour throughout. The nose is full and welcoming, aromas of apple, pear and tropical fruit melded with an amalgam of spices and subtle creaminess. Medium-full bodied, the palate is unctuous and creamy with bright spices and tropical melon fruit, pear interweave nutty oak details and saline on the finish. Battonage (lees stir) created a silky and creamy texture. There is a good balance of acidity and ripe fruit; spices tickle the palate with salinity drives a sustained, refreshing finish. This is a round palate medium-full bodied white with generous fruit, a spicy palate and a saline drive. Match with sweet & sour pork and whitefish over the next 3-5 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews, Jun 2021

Citrus colour in the glass. Fresh fruit aromas of apricot, banana and lime join citrus florals creating a captivating complexity which grows with the addition of toast, vanilla and coconut from oak ageing. This is an aromatic wine that envelopes the senses and finished with a firm acidity.

100% Jampal grapes grown in the Cheleiros region of Lisbon in clay-limestone soils. 

All of the grapes are destemmed prior to a pre-fermentation maceration. The wines is then fermented in stainless steel tanks under a controlled temperature, before final fermantation in French oak barrles. Wine is matured in this french oak for 6 months.

The fame of Cheleiros goes back to the Neolithic period, passing through the Romans and Moors, but it is in the 1950s that the stories and memories of wine began to characterize the village. There was a time when this village was famous for the quality of its vineyards and orchards, due to the quality of soil, plantation on slopes and terraces and a singular microclimate, demarking the border between maritime influence and the mild protection of the Cheleiros brook. This is the first wine made exclusively with the almost extinct grape varietal, Jampal. Elegant, with a good acidity in mouth; new cask gives it an increase in complexity. Full in flavor, wide and very imposing.

Food Pairing: Light dishes, especially fish.
