Quinta de Santiago, Alvarinho Reserva, 2018
Aroma	Aromas elegantes y complejos con notas tropicales intensas, melocotón, lichi y flores de cítricos y jazmín.
Final	Con cuerpo y persistente con frescura y mineralidad característica de la variedad y el terruño.
Viticultura	La Quinta tiene 9 hectáreas de Alvarinho de las cuales 6 poseen una edad entre 3 a 9 años, exclusivamente en suelos arcillosos.
Vinificación	Las uvas seleccionadas son cosechadas a mano y llevadas en cajas de 20 Kg a la bodega. En la bodega familiar, utilizando un método muy tradicional y aplicando todo el conocimiento transmitido por sus ancestros, el objetivo es producir un vino de muy alta calidad, respetando su origen y originalidad. De una manera muy paciente y sabia, como les enseñó su abuela, este vino pasa por la maceración de la piel antes de la fermentación y la etapa de fermentación controlada en inox. Sigue un proceso de envejecimiento "sur lies" con etapas de homogeneización / (batutaje) hasta que llega el momento de hacer el embotellado (8 meses después de la cosecha).
Alcohol	13
Sugerencia de acompañamiento	Ideal como aperitivo y también para acompañar marisco, platos de arroz y cocina asiática.
Tipo de agricultura	Tradicional
Tipo de Uva	Alvarinho.
Consumir preferentemente en	2020 - 2026

"The 2018 Alvarinho was bottled about six weeks before this tasting. It comes in dry (1.5 grams of sugar and 6.5 grams of total acidity) and with 13.1% alcohol, a notable drop from last year's 2017, which makes the winery happy (the label says 13.5—but that's just within the regular half-point differentials allowed by law, and it was already printed). Sharp, fresh and beautifully textured, this has lift to the fruit and a long finish. Dry, clean and rather gripping, this elegant Alvarinho won't impress with fatness in the middle, but it does what you expect a fine Alvarinho to do on all other fronts. It's only in need of more expression of fruit just now. That should come in time. It's worth leaning up today. This should age a decade, said Santiago. It may well. There were 35,000 bottles produced from vines between four and eight years old." Luis Gutiérrez Agosto 2019
