Description
The Prima Branca from Quinta do Vallado is an early harvested Moscatel from prime vineyard sites in the Douro. Distinctive and packed with character, this dry Douro white is typically grapey and floral, with bright aromatics and a fresh, crisp finish.
Quinta do Vallado was established in 1716 and is one of the oldest and most famous estates in the Douro Valley. It is located on the banks of the River Corgo, a tributary of the River Douro, near the town of Peso da Régua. It was once the property of the legendary Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira and remains in the possession of her descendants João and Fransicsco to this day. For nearly 200 years, Quinta do Vallado produced fine Port marketed by the family business Casa Ferreira. During the early 1990s, Quinta do Vallado diversified and alongside their top-quality single estate Ports, it started producing dry red, white and rosé wines under its own brand.

Rainwater Reserva, Barbeito, Madeira
Verdelho
This blend of 80% Tinta Negra and 20% Verdelho is aged in cask for 5 years naturally, without the addition of caramel and is designed to mimic the 'Rainwater Style' of Madeira. The origins of this style are ambiguous, (depending on who you speak to), but it is thought to derive from when the barrels were left outside and the wine inside took on a particular characteristic having been lashed by the Atlantic rains. What we can be certain of is that this is a stunning style medium dry Madeira that has complex flavours of almonds, caramel, nuts and candied fruits. The finish is long and balanced with terrific acidity.
