Colheita Branco 2022, Quinta das Bageiras N&L Wine From one of the mastersWhen he founded Quinta das Bgeiras in 1989 in Bairrada, Mrio Srgio Alves Nuno elected to take a different path from his forebears, becoming a vigneron, rather than selling the familys grapes or wine to the local co operative or ngociants. This is a deliciously fresh, elegant Bairrada white made from 50 50 Maria Gomes and Bical, lots of grapefruit, citrus and an almost salty, saline touch.
