Quinta das Bageiras 2017 Vinho Branco Colheita (Bairrada)
Anyone who had the pleasure of tasting the 1994 vintage of this wine at the Top 100 tasting in 2011 will remember how improbably fresh and refined it was. One does not normally expect a sprightly, Muscatscented light white like this to age and develop. Well, think again. Drink it or age it, there is no better value in our portfolio. The 2016 enjoys a spiffy new label.
