The elaboration of a sparkling wine from the Alvarinho variety requires a careful choice of grapes. The must resulting from this selection ferments at a controlled temperature, obtaining the base wine for sparkling wine. This wine undergoes, already in bottle, a second fermentation. The stay in the cellar, the low and constant temperature for several months, allows this sparkling wine to show all the elegance of the Alvarinho variety. After this fermentation and aging phase, the “degorgement” is carried out, an operation that allows the elimination of yeasts in the bottle and the replacement of the temporary metallic capsule by the definitive stopper typical of the sparkling wine.
It has a citrine yellow color, a fine and persistent bubble. The aroma reveals the fruit of the Alvarinho variety, denoting a good balance between acidity and alcohol. The flavor has persistence and complexity.
