O Produtor, tasting note published in March 19th 2024
Citrine in colour with subtle rye hues. On the nose, notes of tree fruits stand out (green apple, white plum), along with lemon. On the palate, it is very fresh and granitic, with a good balance between structure and volume, adding a touch of complexity. The barrel ageing is discreet, resulting in a long and intense finish.

Quinta de Monforte
In one of the oldest and most historic cities in Portugal, Penafiel, you will find the current Quinta de Monforte, situated on a distinctive slope in the heart of the Vinho Verde region. Between the 17th and 20th centuries, it belonged to some of the most illustrious families in Portugal and was acquired in 2014 by the family that initiated a comprehensive set of transformations and innovations on the forty hectares of the estate. This created an opportunity to apply the most modern winemaking practices, combined with the protection of the ecosystem, respecting the sustainability and biodiversity of nature.
Light and fresh, as dictated by the Vinho Verde region, the wines of Quinta de Monforte stand out for their unique identity, adding greater minerality, complexity, and structure.
