Afluente Branco

Description

Alvarinho from a Monção vineyard planted about 250 meters away. From the 2019 harvest, fermented in used barrels and aged in the same barrels for 9 months, followed by a further 9 months of aging in the bottle.

Dry, sharp acidity, aromatically contained, more focused on minerality. Light, assertive and direct. A wine that is to be drunk!

In this wine is Constantino Ramos' interpretation of the Alvarinho variety in Monção and Melgaço. Constantino works with Anselmo Mendes, but is also responsible, for example, for Turra wines.

Grapes harvested manually in small boxes, with a large selection right at the vineyard, only the bunches being harvested in perfect conditions of maturation and health. Total destemming. Fermentation in used French oak barrels.
