Janela Branca
To face these tough times, where we’ve all been forced to watch the real world through the window, we open one to our white window (“Janela Branca”) of hope that soon we’ll be free to show you the best of Portugal again. For now, we give you the expressive taste and aroma of Lisboa from this elegant wine made from Syrah, Castelão and Tinta Roriz varieties, very fresh and fruity, well balanced with spicy notes acquired by the partial oak ageing.
