2012 FP by Filipa Pato




Vintage: 2012

Region: Bairrada (Portugal)-----> the blue “6” on the map
Grape(s):Baga(98%); Bical(1%), Maria Gomes(1%)
Profile: Medium to light body with lots of dried fruit and light tannin. The acid backs it up really nicely, and it makes your mouth water for more pork.

Regional Foods/ Food pairings: This region is famous for roasted suckling pig. All things pork and game go great with this wine. Rabbit, boar, duck, etc. Plus “Pato” means duck in Portuguese.
