Complex aromas, tricky to identify - paw-paw, cucumber, not many of your typical WSET descriptors here! Orange blossom, lanolin, there is a sense of precision. The palate is light and refreshing, very mineral with riper notes on the finish, lingering pleasantly. An unusual, excellent wine which incidentally also ages remarkably well. A field-blend of local white Douro varieties. (JH 01/05/2025)

Luis Guiterrez
The white 2023 Redoma Branco has a Burgundian profile. They work with vines in the zone of Murça and Porrais on slate and granite soils, with a mixture of varieties. The full clusters were pressed, and the juice fermented in 228- and 500-liter barrels where it matured with the lees for six months. In 2023, the harvest was quite long, aiming at ripeness between 11.5% and 12.5%, and this year the bottled wine finished at 12% alcohol, slightly lower than in 2022. It has clean and expressive aromas of white fruit, flowers, spice and a touch of smoke and a very tasty, harmonious and precise palate. A little lighter and fresher than the 2022, it should age nicely. They produce around 70,000 bottles of this. It was bottled in March-April 2023. 93+ points
