O Produtor, tasting note published in May 28th 2019
QM Nature is a green wine made exclusively with grapes from the Alvarinho grape variety, from the sub-region of Monção and Melgaço, the most noble of the Vinho Verde region, where Alvarinho finds the unique conditions for its production.
Tasting Notes: Mineral aromas of chipped stone and wet sand, citrus fruits with peel and pulp, soft note of lime flower and its polen. Large structure and conversational presence, salivating, long and digestive.
Quintas de Melgaço
The rarity of the Alvarinho grape variety, the low production and distinction makes these grapes the most valuable in Portugal. The quality of the grapes comes from natural reasons of soil and microclimate, but also from cultural practices of those who delicately treat the vines and carefully ascertain the best state of ripeness for the harvest, which is the capital phase for defining the wine’s performance. In winemaking, Quintas de Melgaço follows the traditional oenological methods and practices considered most appropriate for the sub-region, which compete to extract all the quality of the grapes that arrive at the winery. It is at this stage that Quintas de Melgaço carefully imprints its own identity to the wines it produces. Prior to bottling, the technical experts ensure that the wine has a correct chemical composition, is properly clear and presents qualities in tasting. For certification, the wine is submitted to the laboratory of the Commission of Viticulture of the Vinho Verde Region, which after approval, issues the seals of guarantee. There is a great concern with the quality of the bottle and the cork, so that the wine evolves well in the bottle and behaves well in the glass.
