A&D Wines Casa do Arrabalde

Why we love this tipple

“Experience the vibrant and nuanced flavours of Casa do Arrabalde, a distinguished white wine from A&D Wines in Portugal. This wine greets you with a nose full of ripe peaches and gala melon, weaving through notes of passionfruit compote and a splash of pink grapefruit. Subtle hints of dried herbs linger in the background, adding depth to the fruity aromas. On the palate, the wine takes an unexpected turn, introducing the herbal freshness of tarragon and star anise, combined with a creamy mouthfeel reminiscent of single cream. The citrus notes evolve, revealing lemon and white grapefruit, complemented by a hint of apricot. However, the ripeness you detect on the nose shifts to a more herbal and savoury profile, offering a complex and layered tasting experience. The finish is a delightful balance of citrus herbs, with a lingering background of creamy peachiness and a touch of salinity that leaves you refreshed and craving another sip. Casa do Arrabalde is an exquisite choice for those who appreciate a wine that blends fruity vibrancy with herbal sophistication, making it a perfect companion for a wide array of dishes or a standalone indulgence.”
