Deslize Grande Reserva White 2022

DESLIZE GRANDE RESERVA BRANCO 2022
Depth, tension, and ambition in the Douro
Why it's worth it
Because it shows how far a Douro white can go when there's intention, technique, and time. It combines freshness with real structure — something rare when well-executed.

Wine Profile
Intense and complex aromas, with citrus notes of lime, ripe peach, and elegant floral nuances, enveloped by well-integrated spices and vanilla.
On the palate, it is full-bodied, tense, and deep, with an excellent balance between acidity and volume. The finish is long, persistent, and striking.
Consumption Occasion
Special dinners, more demanding moments, or when the wine takes centre stage.

Food Pairing
Fatty fish, baked cod, intense seafood, creamy dishes, and structured white meats.

Sommelier's Comment
A white that breaks away from the region's standard, with structure, tension, and presence. It clearly shows the Douro's potential for more ambitious white wines.
