Queijo Serpa Velho Our pick Past 180 days Serpa Velho is hard, dry and intense, with a lingering flavour. A dry white fermented or aged wholly or partly in oak has the extra texture to stand beside it, and its acidity cuts the fat of the aged ewe's milk. Barrel-fermented or part-oaked dry white, Alentejo: Santa Vitória Reserva Branco · Herdade do Freixo Reserva Branco
