Galactic Wines Vinho Branco Sarava 2023 750ml

Product price

$25.00

Description

"Saravá is an afro-brazilian word used as a mantra to invoke the force that moves nature, but is also remains a greeting similar to "Hail!" - Like a wish of good luck.

We want SARAVÁ wine to show what nature is giving to its grapes. We have chosen this word also to bring our history to the wine. I´ve worked in a lot of different places and met my wife in Brazil while I was a winemaker there. We moved around together and before coming to Portugal and starting Saravá we lived for three years in Mozambique."

Winemaking:36 hours of maceration of destemmed bunches before fermentation, pressed in vertical manual press, stainless steel fermentation with no temperature control. Aged 50% in stainless steel, 25% in oak (chestnut barrels), 25% tinaja. Bottled unfiltered with one gram of S02 per hectoliter at bottling. 

-Louis/Dressner Selections

This 100% Loureiro gets a mere 12 hours of skin contact before moving on to fermentation resulting in a crisp white wine with a whisper of orange. While the skin contact gives the wine a little bit of savoriness, notes of chamomile and peach shine through!
