Ratings & Reviews
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.
Vinification
Produced from carefully selected grapes in the best land plots of the Quinta da Calçada. The grape variety of Alvarinho was de-stemmed and gently pressed. The extracted juice is decanted in a static process. Then it has its fermentation in a stainless steel vats with controlled temperature during approximately 15 days.
