Manuel Gonçalves da Silva/Visão, tasting note published in August 1st 2021
Made exclusively from Touriga Nacionalgrapes. After fermentation, the wine remained on the lees until its filling, without clarification or filtration. It has a soft, pure pink colour, a young aroma of red fruit with attractive floral notes, a dry palate with unsuspected volume, freshness and flavour. Elegant and crisp profile with the innovative line of Hugo Mendes. It surprises from start to finish.
The Hugo Mendes brand encompasses all the wines that in some way are the result of our interpretation of the terroir and national varieties.
The grapes, handpicked, were kept in cold storage for three days. Pressing of whole bunches followed by static decantation and spontaneous fermentation at 17ºC.
After fermentation the wine remained on the lees until the moment of filling. The wine was filled without clarification.
Contains sulphites.

Born and raised in Ribeira de Santarém, Hugo Mendes studied Biotechnological Engineering but his passion for wines spoke louder and since the 2006 vintage he has been fully dedicated to oenology. A lover of communicating art to consumers, he is a regular presence on social networks. Since 2008 he feeds a blog dedicated to uncomplicate oenology for oenophiles. He became a producer in his own name at the 2016 harvest, and for that he carried out the first crowdfunding, in Portugal, to finance a wine.
