Quinta da Pedra Graça da Pedra Alvarinho 2022
TASTING NOTES
Bright yellow with greenish tinge. Pronounced aroma of fresh citrus, mandarine and stone fruits. Light to medium body, with a vibrant acidity that cuts through the entire palate. Silky texture and very long, mineral aftertaste.
Atlantic influenced climate. Vineyards planted on depressive soils of granite. High density plantation for better root penetration. Dry farmed for increased concentration.
Lightly chilled pre-fermentation maceration. Gentle pressing. Fermentation in stainless steel with controlled temperature. After 6 to 9 months, the wine is finned, filtered and then bottled to be released to the market.
Quinta da Pedra is one of the most historical properties in the Alto Minho region, dating back to the 17th century. It is situated in the heart of Monção and Melgaço, a sub region of the Vinho Verde appellation, where Alvarinho excels. The property has 30ha of vineyards,completely dry farmed, benefiting from pure granite soils. The vines, seated in a very gentle valley, benefit from plain solar exposure for perfect ripeness. Two wines are produced here:Milagres by Quinta da Pedra, which is our “perfect” Alvarinho and Graça da Pedra, which shows a more young version of this variety.
The wine is perfect to drink now, but will age beautifully until 2030-32.
