Tasting Notes:
The wine has a fresh and friendly feel. With slight tropical nuances around the edges and a touch of herbaceousness in its youth, this has a fruity and lively feel that makes it delicious and zesty. It has nice acidity and a solid grip on the finish.

Food Pairing:
Good with fatty fish like tuna or salmon with green asparagus crunchy, slightly smoked mackerel.

Contraste white is a blend of Rabigato, Codega do Larinho, Codega, and Viosinho, with 30% of the juice aged in new French oak, the rest in tank. The oak is handled beautifully here, to a point where I had to double check that the statistics I got on oak treatment were accurate.
