Ramilo - Casal Do Ramilo Colares Malvasia 2019 (750ml)

The Ramilo Casal Do Ramilo Colares Malvasia is an interesting and unique wine that offers a modern twist on the traditional white wines from the Colares region. The wine incorporates skin contact during the winemaking process, which adds a deeper dimension of flavor to the wine. The use of Malvasia grapes with both skin contact and the traditional direct press contributes to the wine's complexity. It exhibits a bright rocky salinity, spice, white floral aromatics, and plenty of acidity, which are characteristic traits of Colares wines, suggesting that it can develop further with age.

Casal do Ramilo is noted as a more recent player in the Colares region, but the family has a long history of making wine and owning land in Colares. The wine is produced from their own ungrafted vines, which adds to the authenticity and uniqueness of the product. This new project by the Ramilo family aims to redefine the perception of wines from the Colares region and showcase the potential of this rare wine-growing area. With the combination of the region's temperate climate, the influence of the sea, and the rocky soils, the wines produced by the Ramilo family aim to be fresh, balanced, and distinct.

It's always exciting to explore new projects and wines that push the boundaries of traditional winemaking. If you have the opportunity to try Ramilo Casal Do Ramilo Colares Malvasia, it will be an intriguing experience to taste the expression of this orange wine from the Colares region.
