Lavradores de Feitoria Branco Douro, young, fruity, expressive Portuguese white. This is a great little wine from a Co-Operative winery in the Douro (picked out by Decanter as one of the wineries to watch!), made for everyday drinking. The white is a lovely blend made from Malvasia and Siria, seeing no oak over its production. It's fresh and expressive with flavours of citrus and watermelon. Great value!
Lavradores de Feitoria is a unique project, created on September of 2000 as a result of the union of 15 producers. Between them they owned 18 Quintas spread throughout the best terroirs in the 3 sub-regions of the Douro region (Baixo Corgo, Cima Corgo and Douro Superior). Nowadays the company has 48 shareholders (of which 15 are producers), and 19 Quintas. Together, they have a total area of vineyard of more than 600 ha, allowing them to create wines of great quality, expressing the best of the terroirs and altitudes available, at excellent prices. Production is overseen by expert winemaker Paulo Ruao.
