Encosta da Capela Alvarinho Reserva 2021 13%VOL 75CL

The Encosta da Capela grapes are grown on our own farm. Coming from old vines, in a single cordon, 1.60m high, cultivated in small terraced plots on west-facing slopes. The terrain is sandy with the presence of granite underground. The altitude varies between 150 and 250 meters in S. Paio – Melgaço.

Grapes from the Alvarinho variety, manually selected for a light pressing of the whole grape. After 48 hours of decanting, the fermentation process begins at controlled temperatures. After thinning, it remains in stainless steel until bottling.

On the nose - aromatic. In the mouth it is full-bodied, enveloping and soft. Freshness is felt with a long and generous finish with the characteristic flavor of the variety.
