Winemaking

Wines made from the Loureiro variety are characterized by abundant floral and fresh notes with a slight minerality and ripe fruit in the palate. This wine is a perfect example.

Tasting notes

Crystal clear appearance with light lemony colour. Intense and fruity bouquet, tropical aromas of banana and mango. Distinct floral notes blended in harmony with the abundant fruit. Very nice structure in the mouth with a crispy acidity. The light fizz enhances the wine freshness. Good finish.
