Luís Seabra Xisto Ilimitado Branco 2023
After many years working for others was time to follow my own path, in 2013 Luis Seabra Vinhos was born, the mission is to create wines that tell about the place where they are coming from, made with a minimal intervention philosophy, respecting their nature and character. We want our wines to be able to show the different soils where the vineyards are planted, the different altitudes and exposures, their differences, and similarities With the conscience that this are just the first steps of a long road, the adventure still is to discover the old and unknown vineyards that resist over the years. We want above all to create unique wines. Over these years I developed a special relationship with some of the old vines. Those ones are not lush and their trunks mostly are not thick and imposing. On the contrary - they are slender and twisted, have their own serenity coming from age. They respond more calmly than the other vineyards to various weather conditions, holding better the heat peaks and water stress and also resisting better the rain that insists on dropping before the harvest. Those vineyards have a singular character given by the site where they are planted and the varieties that make up the mixture. If we respect the grapes individuality in the winery the wines will be as the vineyards - discrete, not exuberant and with a depth and complexity coming from the long years of experience.

One of the best winemakers of this country at the moment!

The nose is full of stone and orchard fruits, with a damp core and white pepper dominating the aromas. On the palate, it's impressively bright and mineral, with a great balance between power and lift. Lemon, green apple and pear flavours mingle with hints of flowers and slate minerals. It's a wine that's both juicy and mineral.
