Xisto Ilimitado Douro Branco

The palate is bright, mineral, and tightly focused, opening with lemon, green apple, and pear lifted by crisp, driving acidity that gives the wine tension and energy. Texture is silky‑light with a chalky, slate‑mineral snap, showing the Douro’s schist soils clearly. The mid‑palate brings gooseberry, green fig, grapefruit pith, and white pepper, adding savoury lift beneath the citrus‑orchard fruit. The finish is long, saline, and stony, leaving citrus zest, pear skin, and a flinty mineral echo.
