Very lush aromas of white flowers, passion fruit and citrus fruits. In the mouth it is a very concentrated, but soft wine, that reveals notes of floral, ripe passion fruit, grapefruit, lime peel. A wine that takes care of the senses and with an excellent balance between fruit, minerality and acidity.

2018 was atypical in the Vinho Verde region. A long and dry winter caused a significant delay in the vineyard cycle. This was followed by a rainy spring which caused the development of the vine to happen in adverse conditions. Summer was moderate except for an extreme heat wave in the beginning of August that affected new vines and more exposed parcels in the vineyard. Maturation was slow and the dry harvest period allowed for the grapes to reach optimal levels of maturation and allowed a selective harvest of parcels and grape clusters according to each optimal state of maturation.
