Winery Overview
Quinta da Calçada has been producing wine in Amarante for over a century, making them one of the oldest producers of the Vinhos Verdes region. They have more than 50ha of vineyards treated and certified according to sustainable practices, which express what the best nature has to offer. The Quinta da Calçada cellars were founded in 1917, focusing on quality wines and sparkling wines. Calcada Wine Estates also owns a farm in the demarcated region of Douro, UNESCO World Heritage.
LAGO wines capture the all the freshness of the region combined with the aromatic exuberance of its grape varieties. Wines that are fruity and captivating!
The fruit used for developing this blend was grown accordingly to the Portuguese Integrated sustainable Agriculture, which follows the guidelines defined by the International Organisation for Biological and Integrated Control (IOBC). The strict following of these principals is certified by an independent entity (SATIVA) recognized by the Portuguese State.
The fruit for Portal da Calçada was manually harvested at the perfect maturation point from several parcels of our Estates, which are just outside of our wine cellar. This diversity of parcels exhibits diverse soils with different exposures that reflect the potential of the Amarante sub-region.
Vinification
Made from Arinto and Loureiro, which were de-stemmed and gently pressed. Once vinified, the base wine ages for a few months. It then ferments in a closed tank according to the Charmat method, which gives it effervescence, maintaining the freshness characteristic of the Vinho Verde region.
Tasting Notes
It is a wine with a fine, elegant, and almost creamy Mousse, with a floral nose and a slight brioche. In the mouth it is fresh and round, highlighted with tastes of Anju pear, and Fuji apples with a fine bubble and a pleasant finish
