Weather conditions in the Vinho Verde region were marked by abundant rainfall and low temperatures during the winter. Spring continued to be rainy, affecting the start of the wine cycle. Hot and dry, the summer proved favorable for grape ripening. The harvest began on August 16 and ended in mid-September. Challenging and of good quality, this harvest was the origin of aromatic, long wines with refreshing acidity.
Color | Lemon-yellow with a golden halo. Aroma | Very expressive in white fruit, with great delicacy and some citrus. As a result of ageing in barrels, there is a slight smoky touch that gives it complexity. Taste | On the palate, it reveals freshness and balance, lively acidity, an enveloping texture and a long, delicately mineral finish.
10º and 12ºC
Great ageing potential. Enjoy now or store for up to 10 years after bottling.
