Vital, rare old grape variety

Delicious dry white wine from Portugal. This wine is made from Vital, a rare old grape variety. Vital was used in blends to give wine more freshness. Casal Figueira shows that Vital also produces a surprisingly beautiful wine as a single variety. Looks a bit like Chenin blanc but is Portuguese idiosyncratic.

Antonio was the winemaker who made Vital shine again. This wine is subtle, intriguing, elegant, with a lot of tension. Unique and downright delicious. Biodynamic wine from old vines with low yields.

Interesting
Vital is a rare variety from Portugal. Vital produces fresh, tight wine with lots of tension. Antonio van Casal Figuara has given this grape its rightful place as a full-fledged wine. From chalky soil with a maritime climate.
