Cortinha Velha Alvarinho Sparkling Velha Reserva 2018

In the prestigious Cambeses area of ​​Monção, the Covas cousins ​​continue the tradition of generations in producing classic Vinho Verde wines, focused mainly on the great expression of the Alvarinho grape variety. The care and attention to detail of this small family business permeates every decision in the vineyard, in the cellar and in the impeccable presentation of its wines and sparkling wines. Production is extremely limited, approximately 15,000 bottles/year, defended with passion and knowledge by Sara and Pedro, and now by the pioneering team of terroir wines at Temple Wines!

An incredible sparkling wine aged in the bottle for 2 years on its lees, much longer than the minimum allowed in the Champagne region, which gives this wine a magnificent texture!

Score: 17.5/20 Great Picks.
