This is the first white wine produced by the Sangue Real brand. The vineyards that give origin to this wine are located near the Natural Park of Serra da Arrábida, about 5 km from the Atlantic Ocean, with the Arrábida mountains between the vineyards and the ocean, reducing a little the strong maritime influence and allowing optimal conditions for maturation. This wine is produced from the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety, from 4-year-old vines.
