The wine region of Vinho Verde

Portuguese star of fresh, slightly sparkling white. High-end Alvarinho in Monção and Melgaço: mineral, precise whites with signature notes of lemon, white peach, flowers and a tense saline finish. Aromatic Loureiro (orange blossom, bay leaf), round Trajadura, full Avesso, lively Arinto. Light natural effervescence, low alcohol (9-11°), sharp vivacity: ideal aperitif and seafood.

The wine region of Minho

Portugal's northernmost region, heart of Atlantic Vinho Verde. Signature lively, lightly sparkling whites with signature notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers, fresh herbs and a saline touch, thirst-quenching, low-alcohol palate — the sunshine wine par excellence. High-end star Alvarinho (peach, exotic fruits, minerality), floral Loureiro (laurel), ample Trajadura, taut Arinto, structured Avesso. Vinhão as lively red.

The word of the wine: Performance

Quantity of grapes harvested per hectare. In AOC, the average yield is limited on the proposal of the appellation syndicate, validated by the Inao. The use of high-performance plant material (especially clones) and better control of vine diseases have increased yields. This is not without consequences on the quality of the wines (dilution) and on the state of the market (too much wine). We must not over-simplify: low yields are not synonymous with quality, and it is often in years with generous harvests that we find the greatest vintages (1982 and 1986 in Bordeaux, 1996 in Champagne, 1990 and 2005 in Burgundy...).
