A characterful assemblage led by Covela’smain grape Avesso, blended with Chardonnay and a couple of other “spices” applied by our winemaker, Rui Cunha, who has been linked to the Covela project since 1990.
Grape Varieties: Avesso, Chardonnay and others.
Tasting Note: Color: Bright, pale straw. Aroma: Expressive. Floral with heady notes of blossoms and stone fruit and a touch of aromatic herbs. Slight hints of citrus. Palate: Despite the fragrant nose, a decidedly dry wine, with nicely balanced acidity and minerality typical of the region. Long, elegant finish. Abundant personality.
Vinification: Hand-picked plot-by-plot, for optimal timing at harvest. Grapes transport in small boxes to avoid crushing. Maceration of selected grapes. Fermentation in temperature controlled stainless-steel vats. Storage on fine lees until bottled.
Gastronomy: Enjoy this Covela Branco at a temperature of 12C to 14C (53F to 57F). An excellent wine to pair with various types of starters, though best when accompanying fish and seafood. Also gives a nice twist to those ever-difficult-to-pair poultry dishes, and also some pork dishes. Its freshness and structure make it an excellent foil for creamy sauces. A wine with ageing potential of at least five years.
Winemaker: Rui Cunha
