about the wine

This wine originates in a selected portion of the Quinta do Ameal. It demonstrates the potential of the Loureiro grape variety for producing wines with character, complexity and capacity for evolution. We produce approximately 5,200 bottles.

Autumn and Winter were very rainy. Spring had a rainy start followed by a drier period that contributed to the good development of the berries. Despite the initial pressure, it was a year without major phytosanitary problems, in which the grapes arrived at the winery in good condition and well-ripened. We began the harvest on 18 September.
