Ciclo Vinho Espalhete
Country: Portugal
Region: Alentejo
Grapes: Fernão Pires, Touriga Nacional
Vintage: 2024
Hugo and Joana Campos of Ciclo Vinho have just 1.5 hectares of vines in Estremoz comprising no less than 10 different indigenous Portuguese grape varieties. With these they work with minimal intervention and by hand to craft fragrant, pure and vivacious natural wines in tiny quantities of just 600-2,000 bottles per cuvée.
A brand new cuvée from Ciclo, an espumoso (sparkling) white made from a blend of Fernão Pires and Touriga Nacional that underwent extended lees ageing. A refined, toasty style with lime zest, jasmine and creamy brioche notes.
