Vineyard & Production
Representing the diversity of the Vinho Verde region, with Loureiro sourced from the Lima river sub-region, Alvarinho from Monção and Melgaço, and Avesso from Baião. Grapes are manually harvested and whole-cluster pressed pneumatically. The must undergoes cold decanting for 24 hours before fermentation at controlled temperatures (10-15°C) for 12-15 days. The wine remains in contact with lees for about 3 months in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature, adding richness and complexity.
Tasting Notes
Exuberant aromas that are fresh and light, dominated by citrus fruits and tropical notes. The palate is driven by fresh acidity with good body and a lingering finish. Crisp, refreshing, and beautifully balanced with vibrant fruit character.
Perfect Pairings
Perfect as an aperitif or paired with seafood dishes, salted cod Portuguese specialities, grilled fish, shellfish, sushi, light salads, or Asian cuisine. Also excellent with goat cheese or simply enjoyed on a warm day.

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.
