Description
Lying on the slopes of the São Mamede Range at an altitude of 500 metres in the Alentejo sub-region of Portalegre, the property benefits from cooler and wetter conditions than the hot Alentejo plain. The Fonte Souto wines express the freshness and elegance provided by the altitude, as well as the structure and complexity from the estate’s extensive collection of mature, low-yielding vines.
The Florão White represents the most approachable wine style from the Fonte Souto estate, made with all the attention to detail and care of the other estate wines, but with a more youthful profile intended for drinking young. Their freshness, balance and structure clearly identify them as wines born of the unique Fonte Souto terroir.
TASTING NOTE
Made by the blend of Arinto and Verdelho, the Florao white shows a lively, bright aromatic expression of green apples, mango, and a touch of pineapple, ending with floral, honeysuckle notes. The palate is sprite and crisp with fine acidity defining citric undertones, which introduce melon, lemon, and golden plum flavours. The mouthfeel is fresh and vibrant with well-balanced fruit and acidity.
