O Produtor, tasting note published in July 21st 2022

Mature lemon yellow with golden reflections, clean and bright. Intense aroma with botanical, balsamic, floral, and citrus notes standing out against an elegant background of Alvarinho wine, enhancing the range of white flowers and citrus. Sweet entry, with refreshing acidity, leading to pleasant bitter notes characteristic of absinthe. Very broad and persistent finish, with a distinct aftertaste of the plants used in its production.

Casa de Canhotos

A long time ago, in a place called Canhotos, in the parish of Penso, a house was built. For years, it was the only house existing in that place, and the population of the parish came to call it “Casa de Canhotos.”

Initially, the area adjacent to this house consisted mainly of cultivated fields. Over time, and due to its privileged location and a favorable microclimate, they were transformed into vineyards composed solely of the Alvarinho grape variety.

Then, in August 2006, the producer Fernando Rodrigues decided to launch a brand of Alvarinho, which he named “Casa de Canhotos Alvarinho” – a wine made from self-produced grapes, subjected to rigorous selection criteria aimed at ensuring a high-quality product.

The adventure continues, and the brand expands its product range with sparkling wine and, in 2019, vermouth.
