Forest wines® Cepa Pura Fernao Pires, Quinta do Montalto – 9504558776610

ORGANIC / VEGAN

This medium-bodied white wine has a lovely straw-yellow color with a hint of green. It’s super aromatic, bursting with ripe fruit and spices, plus a little touch of oak. The palate matches the nose perfectly, with a slightly creamy texture from six months of aging on the lees. Despite that richness, it still feels refreshingly crisp. Beautifully balanced and a great option for Palomino lovers!

This wine is crafted from handpicked Fernão Pires grapes, which are fermented using natural yeasts and aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels.

Quinta do Montalto has been in the same family for five generations, nestled in the serene landscape near Fátima, not far from Lisbon. This 15-hectare estate is certified organic since 1997 and grows local grapes, including Aragonez and Fernão Pires, that highlight the region’s diverse terroir.
