Merchant's description

Lemon coloured with a fine and persistent mousse. Fresh and intense aroma, combining floral and citrus nuances with a slight mineral note. It is fresh in the mouth with a creamy and delicate mousse. The Loureiro and Arinto are gently destemmed and pressed. The extracted juice was fermented in stainless steel vats followed by a further fermentation in tank giving the wines its elegant bubbles.
