Marques De Marialva Cuvee Primitivo Brut Nature 2014

An exceptional, highly sophisticated vintage sparkling white wine crafted via the classic traditional method by the historic Adega de Cantanhede. Made entirely from the Arinto grape variety and aged for an extensive 60 to 100 months on its lees, this bone-dry, zero-dosage cuvée showcases a striking intense citrus hue with brilliant golden highlights and ultra-fine, persistent bubbles. The complex nose opens with mature aromas of dried fruits, roasted hazelnuts, toasted brioche, and warm bread crust. 

Food Pairing: Outstanding as a serious celebratory aperitif, or paired alongside fresh oysters, sea bass ceviche, roasted white meats, or lightly spiced Mediterranean, Indian, and Chinese cuisine.

90 Points - Wine Enthusiast 

Arinto gives intense acidity to this bone-dry wine. It has softened in the eight years since harvest, giving freshness alongside a spicy character. The wine is ready to drink.
