The partnership between Raul Riba d'Ave and Rui Roboredo Madeira, someone who deeply understands the vineyards of this region, makes it possible to create wines that will provide emotions "ALMOST" as incredible as those we experience when drinking great world-class wines. With this "Quasi Branco", their aim is to showcase the minerality offered by the Riesling grape variety and the concentration of aromas/flavours provided by Fonte Cal, Síria, Gouveio, and Verdelho, when grown above 700m. Bright, medium-deep lemon-yellow colour. Pronounced aroma of lime, lemon peel, tangerine, and some stone fruit. The smell of wet stone also stands out. On the palate, it is extremely mineral, reminiscent of spring water throughout the tasting. It is medium-bodied, with a silky texture and high acidity that blends with the great concentration of ripe citrus fruit. A savoury, refreshing finish that makes each glass very enjoyable. It has ageing potential.
