O Produtor, tasting note published in June 6th 2023
Colour: Citrine with light straw hues.
Aroma: Very young and expressive, already revealing good complexity. Tree fruits like apple, citrus, white flowers and a mineral touch stand out.
Palate: Dry. Creamy attack, aromatic explosion on the palate, fresh acidity which gives it a long finish. Perfect integration between the barrel and the wine.
The first organic wine produced at Quinta de Covela could have no other grape variety than Avesso.
It shows the most complex side of the variety with excellent tension and structure. Very gastronomic.
Hand picked. Transport of the grapes in small crates to avoid crushing. Manual selection of clusters. Total de-stemming followed by gentle pressing.
Spontaneous fermentation in 300 litre oak barrels from Austrian and French forests.
Aged on its lees, with periodic batonnage until April 2022.
