    Vineyard

    Vineyards are located throughout the sub-region of Amarante within Vinho Verde; a brief 40 minutes from Oporto and 15 minutes from the entrance to Douro Valley. Because of this location at higher altitude, the vines enjoy a diverse microclimate and distinctive terroir. Wide swings between day and night temperatures result in longer hang time and more even ripening for the grapes.

    Terroir

    Crushed gravel schist

    Viticulture

    Vines are estate grown and sit south-facing in the vineyard at an elevation range of 1000-2000m. The vines are pruned 2x/year to maintain healthy growth. At harvest, grapes are selected by hand and yield 4 tons/acre on average.

    Vinification

    The selected grapes are de-stemmed and slightly pressed. The juice is then extracted and decanted by gravity. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks for 15 days. Before bottling the wine is filtered and stabilized.
    Residual Sugar: 10 g/L

    Tasting Notes

    This wine presents a light salmon color and a very slight effervescence that favors the release of its fruity aroma. It reveals a great freshness on the palate, with a vivid burst of minerals resulting in a very pleasant and versatile wine.
