Description
Aphros Vinhão 2018
Aphros Vinhão has rich purple hues in the glass. The nose reveals brambly aromas of forest floor and mountain berries with a vegetal hint. Firm palate with a crispy acidity and round tannins that make it enormously gastronomic.
100% Vinhão. The fruit comes from biodynamic vineyards on the south facing slopes of the Lima river.
Manual harvesting of the fruit. Stomped by foot and pressing. Natural fermentation with maceration of the skins and pip in ancient granite tanks at 20–22°C. Malolaction fermentation in inox vats, ageing "sur lies".
AWARDS & ACCOLADES
"A red Vinho Verde from the Lima Valley, this is in a rich style, with tannins and acidity and also with stalky black-currant flavors. Its fruit is ripe while intensely fresh. It is ready to drink." — Roger Voss.
WINES FROM UNIQUE REGIONS & BOUTIQUE WINERIES
Founded in 2019, we were bored with the typical Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Amarone & Moscato offerings at most bars & restaurants, and were inspired to dive deeper into the wine world!
