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: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
