Winery: Aveleda
|
|
With Quinta da Aveleda we honor a long family tradition of winemaking. The Guedes family founded the winery as early as 1671, and still owns it today. On the label, you can see the Family House, which is still in use, giving the personal signature to this special wine.
The wine is created and produced in the Quinta da Aveleda estate. Every year, we select the best grapes of the most famous varieties of this region such as Loureiro, Trajadura and Alvarinho. These grapes come from our 160ha of vines and the production is controlled in order to produce a high quality Vinho Verde.
The wine has a citrine color and a clear, bright appearance. It is a complex, delicate and persistent wine, well-balanced and with the presence of tropical fruits and slight floral notes.
Ideal as an appetizer or to accompany fish, Italian cuisine or light meat dishes.
The Alvarinho, Loureiro and Trajadura vines are planted in strings in the best soils of Quinta da Aveleda. Only the grapes at the ideal maturation stage are picked during the harvest. The
vinification of each variety is carried out separately and only then is the lot
produced. The fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks at controlled
temperatures (between 16-18ºC).

Now in a smart clear blue bottle, this is Aveleda’s estate wine. It is always a classic, with just some extra weight to give it distinction. The flavors are apple, brightened with lime, finishing with vibrant acidity.

Lean and focused, this courses with fruit and mineral flavours. Spend time with it and you might find orange blossom, lemon and lime pith, peach skin and smky minerality. The tartness will round out with a few months in the bottle. For the raw bar.
