    Bacalhôa Catarina Branco: a royal wine

    “Super value” according to wine critic Robert Parker

    This wine has been produced since the 1981 vintage, in honor of D. Catarina de Bragança, Princess of Portugal and Queen of England. It was the first Portuguese white wine to be partially fermented in new wooden barrels — a groundbreaking choice at the time.

    Grape Varieties & Terroir Bacalhôa Catarina Branco

    The wine is made from three grape varieties: Chardonnay, Fernão Pires, and Arinto, each harvested separately.

    • The Chardonnay ferments in new French oak barrels and undergoes wood aging for approximately 4.5 months,
    • The two indigenous varieties Fernão Pires and Arinto ferment in concrete vats.

    Next comes the blending.

    Tasting note

    • Color & Scent
      The wine has a pale yellow color and is delicate, elegant, mineral, and floral. Bacalhoa On the nose floral and lightly aromatic, with notes of apple, yellow fruit such as peach and pineapple, combined with subtle sensations of toasted wood,
    • Flavor
      Creamy due to the Chardonnay and fresh and mineral from the 2 local Portuguese grapes. Deliciously fresh and mineral finish.

    Catarina is a wonderful aperitif, but due to its rich structure, it is also suitable with fish dishes such as grilled sardines, linguine with tuna, prawns with aioli, seafood, and sushi.
