The wine region of Monção e Melgaço

Loureiro and Trajadura complementary. Weathered granites, microclimate sheltered by western mountains from the Atlantic, hot dry summers cold winters, full ripening.
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: Ovoids (tanks)
Egg-shaped vats used for wine making and maturing that favour the natural suspension of the lees thanks to the vortex movements, which give the wine more fat and fruity aromas.
