Tasting Note
Light and delicate, with a soft, rounded and slightly off dry palate; it combines nutty flavours with soft tropical notes and fresh acidity on the finish.
Producer
One of Portugal's largest and most progressive producers with 600 hectares spread across estates in five regions from Douro in the north to Alentejo in the south. Winemaker Francisco Antunes oversees what must be one of the most diverse ranges in Europe, from the 3rd largest Portuguese rose brand (Casal Mendes) to some of the country's most impressive premium reds from estates in Douro, Dao, Bairrada and Alentejo. Arguably, Francisco's greatest achievements lie between these extremes, a range of mid-priced wines from native varieties, full of character, quite distinctly Portuguese, but at the same time approachable and with fresh, modern fruit.
Winemaking
Produced from two of the most important varietals in the Vinho Verde region, Pederna, Azal as well as Loureiro. The grapes are pressed without destemming to avoid bruising the skins. Cool fermentation takes place to maintain the fresh elegant characteristics of this wine.
Food pairing
The perfect accompaniment with seafood and grilled fish. A summer favourite!
