Virtus Winery
CREDO white
Cuvée of golden yellow colour and moderate fragrance is a combination of wealth and sophistication. Three types of noble grapes, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, and Gewurztraminer, gave three noble wines that are carefully tended for 9 months in French oak barrels before being carefully blended into Virtus’s Credo white.
Character
Tropical aromas of citrus are only half of the story; there is something more in this white wine – green herbal notes, dill, cut grass, ripe apricot, baked apples spiced with nutmeg, and vanilla with a hint of smoke. The taste of Virtus’s Credo white is much richer than each individual wine that has taken part in its creation, leaving the impression of “fat” wine of viscous structure with a slight indication of honey and a long finish.
Fermentation and aging
A smaller part in inox and the majority in French oak barriques and barrels
