About this sparkling wine

Portal da Calcada Spumante Vinho Verde is a lively and elegant sparkling wine from Portugal's Vinho Verde region. Lemon-coloured with fine, persistent bubbles, it displays fresh and intense aromas combining floral and citrus notes with a subtle, delicate smoky minerality. The palate is fresh and vibrant, with a creamy, delicate mousse that adds elegance and texture. Why You'll Love It This is authentic Vinho Verde Spumante crafted with care and precision. Made from Loureiro and Arinto grapes, the wine undergoes gentle destemming and pressing, with natural decantation before primary fermentation in stainless steel. A secondary fermentation in tank develops the fine, elegant bubbles characteristic of this style. Winemaker João Almeida Cabral focuses on gentle handling and precise winemaking to preserve the purity and expression of each variety, creating a sparkling wine that's fresh, vibrant, and perfect for any celebration.
