Type of wine
Muros Antigos Alvarinho is obtained from the noble Alvarinho grape variety, grown exclusively in the sub-region of Monção and Melgaço. The localization of this sub-region provides it a particular micro- climate surrounded by a range of moun- tains which allows an unique combination between precipitation, temperature and luminosity required for the perfect mat- uration of the grapes. The harvest of the grapes that will create this wine is the first to occur so that we can obtain its unique aromatic freshness.

Key points
Handpicked grapes into small boxes and carried to the winery in a short period of time. Pressing of the whole de-stemmed grape. Cold clarification for 48-72h. Long fermentation at low temperatures of 14-18ºC.

Tasting notes
Pronounced citric notes (lemon and grapefruit). Clear, direct and refreshing mouth attack. Lemon peel note on the mouth along with a stress and flavor- ful acidity. Ends long and with a good mouthfeel.
