About this wine
Wine Style:
Fresh, dry white with a light spritz
Tasting Notes:
Appearance:
⤍ Clear, pale lemon with greenish reflections.
Nose:
⤍ Green apple leads, followed by citrus and subtle tropical fruit.
Palate:
⤍ Fresh apple and citrus, lively acidity and a light spritz. Soft mineral notes with moderate structure.
Finish:
⤍ Expected to be fresh and fruit-led; length is not specified by the producer.
Gastronomy:
∙ Seafood, grilled fish, light salads
∙ Avoid: Heavy sauces, very sweet or spicy dishes
Winemaking process:
The grapes are processed quickly to limit oxidation, destemmed and fermented at low temperature in stainless steel to keep their fresh citrus and floral aromas. The light spritz is typical of the region. 'Vinho Verde' means 'green wine', referring to young, fresh wine from Portugal's lush, rainy north-west, not to its colour.
Interesting notes:
The 2025 vintage earned 90 points and Gold at the International Wine & Spirits Awards 2026.
