Drink it now or cellar for up to 5 years. No need to decant.

Located on the steep banks of the Douro, in the heart of this valley that gave birth to the best wines of Portugal, Quinta Do Pessegueiro is made up of three plots - Pessegueiro, Teixeira and Afurada - which produce exceptional wines and ports. Founded by Roger Zannier nearly 30 years ago, the winery is located in the heart of the estate and stands out for its extraordinarily modern architecture.All grape varieties on the property are autochthonous. They are the most adapted to the geology and climate so specific to the region. The predominant varieties are: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Souzão.

Aluze Branco is a blend of Rabigato, Gouveio and Cerceal, fermented and aged on fine lees. This is a fragrant and elegant white, with citrus notes of grapefruit and mandarin, hints of apricot, floral aromas of acacia and honeysuckle, and a touch of flint. Long, firm and oily, but at the same time crunchy, with a fine acidity that gives it freshness. In the bottle it shows good potential for evolution.

Serve between 9ºC and 11ºC as an aperitif or with all fish dishes, seafood, or some light meat preparations.
