Mezena is a fresh, lightly sparkling Vinho Verde from Calcada Wines, one of the oldest and most respected producers in the region. Founded in 1917 in Amarante and now in its third generation, Calcada Wines has been crafting still and sparkling whites from the Vinho Verde DOC for over a century. Mezena is their entry-level expression, pale, tropical, and effortlessly refreshing, with a vivid acidity and a very low 8.5% ABV.
Why You'll Love It
At just 8.5% ABV, Mezena is one of the lightest and most refreshing bottles you will find. Vinho Verde's natural effervescence, high acidity, and tropical fruit character make it the ultimate warm-weather wine, and Mezena delivers all of that in a clean, versatile, and genuinely crowd-pleasing package. Whether you are serving it as an aperitif, pairing it with food, or simply enjoying it on a summer afternoon, it is hard to find a more approachable white wine at this price.
Vineyard & Production
Sourced from vineyards in the Amarante sub-region of the Vinho Verde DOC, approximately 10 minutes from the entrance to the Douro region. The soils are granite with some shale, and the Atlantic influence produces wines of marked minerality, high freshness, and great gastronomic potential. Grapes are hand-selected at optimal ripeness, de-stemmed, and lightly pressed. The juice is decanted by gravity before fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats over two weeks. The wine is filtered and stabilised before bottling.
Tasting Notes
Pale yellow in colour with a light natural effervescence. The nose offers tropical and citrus aromas with a fresh, mineral lift. On the palate, it is lively and clean with vivid acidity and a pleasant, versatile finish. Best served well chilled.
Perfect Pairings
Perfect as an aperitif or alongside light, fresh dishes including sushi, pasta, pizza, fish, and seafood. Also an excellent match for Asian cuisine, light salads, and mild cheeses.
The Blend
Loureiro , Arinto , Azal, and Trajadura
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
