O Produtor, tasting note published in January 4th 2024

Colour: Bright citrine with straw hues.
Nose: clean, with consistent intensity and complexity. According to our winemaker, Rui Cunha, "what delights me most in this wine is the expression of the grape in its wilder or natural side, which is expressed by sensations of citrus and white flowers".
Palate: Dry, vibrant acidity, balanced structure and fresh finish.

Covela

COVELA Avesso Natur is our first Avesso that is not only certified organic, but also bottled without added sulphites. This wine is a testament to Covela’s continued commitment to innovation and to maximising the potential of the Avesso variety, which originates from the granitic soils on the banks of the Douro where Covela is located. This is the second certified organic wine from the quinta, following the launch of Covela Avesso Reserva Biológico in 2019. In COVELA Avesso Natur, the sulphites normally used to stabilise wines have been replaced by dried chestnut flower (Castanea sativa Mill.) harvested from Covela’s chestnut trees and prepared by hand by our viticulture and oenology teams. Starting with the 2020 harvest, we select a small batch of grapes from our lower Campo Fundeiro parcel, which we then ferment and age in our oldest oak barrels in an attempt to replicate the more traditional winemaking methods of our region.
