The aroma is fruity, with distinct notes of strawberry and raspberry as well as balsamic hints. On the palate, it is deep and soft, with notes of fresh red fruit and spices, particularly black pepper. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine is characterized by its bright color, lightness, freshness, and pronounced acidity. It has a moderate alcohol content and is described as graceful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZafirah is a blend dominated by the Alvarelhão variety, complemented by Borraçal, Pedral, Espadeiro, and a small proportion of Vinhão. The grapes are carefully hand-picked and strictly selected, with only perfectly healthy fruit used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe winemaking process includes complete destemming, followed by a 24-hour pre-fermentation maceration and subsequent pressing. Fermentation takes place two-thirds in stainless steel tanks and one-third in French oak barrels. The wine ages for six months and is produced with minimal oenological intervention to preserve its natural character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to its pronounced acidity, Zafirah is highly versatile as a food pairing. It suits both light dishes such as sushi or pasta and more complex, richer dishes, and even desserts. The recommended serving temperature is between 12 and 14°C.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Constantino Ramos","offers":[{"title":"75 cl bottle","offer_id":49585253908746,"sku":"MP-ZAFI-CONST-3122","price":14.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0001\/0763\/files\/IMG_0003.jpg?v=1774991804","url":"https:\/\/www.maitrephilippe.dk\/en\/products\/zafirah-2023-vinho-verde-tinto-constantino-ramos","provider":"Maître Philippe \u0026 Filles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
