Tasting notes

Made from high-altitude Douro white varieties, including Malvasia, Viosinho and Gouveio, this is a clear and brilliant lemon colour with aromatic intensity dominated by citrus and tropical fruits, along with some floral notes (roses). Beautifully balanced, with good body and lively acidity and a fine, elegant, lingering finish.

Production method

Temperature-controlled fermentation and maturation in stainless steel vat.

Producer notes

Portugal is a land of contrasts, from the undulating plains of Alentejo in the south through the granite mountains of the Dão and the picturesque Douro valley, to the pleasant green land of Vinho Verde in the far North. Sogrape strongly believe in indigenous grape varieties, and find the best results come from blends rather than single varietals. The Callabriga regional range continues to make an impact with award-winning Dao, Douro and Alentejo wines, while Quinta de Azevedo is the leading premium brand of Vinho Verde in the UK.
