Olho Gordo Encruzado 2025

12,50 €

Greenish-yellow in colour. Aromas of white-fleshed fruit with delicate notes of jasmine blossom, pine resin, and wet stone. On the palate, it shows a complex, full body with incisive acidity; its pronounced minerality stands out, leading to a long and persistent finish.
