The vineyard

The grapes originate from organic and biodynamic vineyards in the Cávado and Lima subregions, planted on granite soils. Hand-harvesting ensures the fruit remains intact prior to processing.

Ideal combination

Fish

Fish pairs best with white and rosé wines: they don't overpower the taste and suit different cooking methods.

Match

Sushi

Sushi and sashimi pair well with light, high-acid white wines — they refresh the palate and let the delicate flavour of the fish come through.

Match

Winemaking

Following whole-cluster pressing and a 48-hour decantation, the must undergoes spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for five months on its lees in the same tanks to preserve its varietal character.
