Lively, fruity whites to drink young with a pale golden robe, an airy, low-alcohol palate with marked acidity, and signature aromas of citrus (lemon), green apple, white flowers and fresh herbal notes. A nervy, thirst-quenching profile. Very little-known, used locally in traditional Vinho Verde DOC blends, preserved for its patrimonial interest. A Portuguese white grape grown in the Monção sub-region of northern Minho.
