2017 Quinta de la Rosa

The 2017 Branco is a blend of 40% Códega, 40% Rabigato and 20% Viosinho, aged for five months in used French oak. It comes in at 12.5% alcohol. This is the entry-level Branco (formerly "douRosa"). Despite the reputation of the 2017 vintage as very hot, this shows good freshness and concentration suitable for its price level. Lively and tasty, this is an easy white that should be drunk young.
