Poças Reserva Branco 2019
Descripción
Este complejo blanco es un coupage de diversas variedades autóctonas de la región de Douro, la Arinto y varias viñas viejas, cultivadas en altura para asegurar la frescura. Tras la fermentación en barrica, permaneció 9 meses en la misma, lo que le aporta una marcada complejidad y estructura. En condiciones óptimas, es un vino que puede aguantar perfectamente unos 10 años hasta su consumo.

Opinión de los críticos
The 2019 Branco Reserva is a 70/30 blend of Old Vines and Arinto, aged for nine months in new French oak. It comes in at 13.7% alcohol. The first impression here is of extra wood as compared to the lower-level whites this issue, but this ultimately handles its wood rather well. Then, it seems more serious. It is sensually textured, adequately concentrated and rather refined. An elegant white to pair with food, this will be easy to drink, but it should also age well for a decade or so. Whether it does enough to justify the price spike is up to you, but this is a small step up in the lineup—in mouthfeel, texture and finish—especially if you are using it as a food pairing.
A ripe, full wine, with spice, toastiness and plenty of great fruitiness, this is young and deserves aging. The wine's ripe melon and pear flavors give it richness as well as freshness. That contrasts with the wine's taut texture and crisp edge. Drink from 2022.
Todo comenzó en 1918, cuando el 15 de agosto, unos meses antes del Armisticio de Compiègne, Manoel Domingues Poças Júnior decidió establecer su propia compañía: Poças & Comandita .
