Vallegre Colheita Branco 2024: fresh fruit, citrus and flowers, fresh and creamy.
Tasting note
Lemon yellow, with an aroma of fresh fruit, citrus and floral notes. Intense on the palate, with an attractive attack, elegant freshness and a medium, creamy finish.
The story
The vineyards lie in the Baixo Corgo and Cima Corgo sub-regions, on new terraces with varied exposures, mainly north and east, and at different altitudes. After alcoholic fermentation the wine ages for six months with bâtonnage.
Food pairing
Excellent as an aperitif, with snacks, salads, fish and seafood, pasta and risotto, white meat, pizza and Asian dishes.
The producer
Vallegre is based at Quinta da Vista Alegre, in the Cima Corgo, on the right bank of the Douro between the mouth of the Pinhão and Covas do Douro. The quinta’s vineyards have been making wine since the 19th century. The quinta belongs to the Cunha Barros family, and in 1998 the company took the name Vallegre, a blend of its two main quintas: Valle Longo and Vista Alegre.
At Quinta da Vista Alegre the grapes for Port are still foot-trodden in old stone lagares. Besides Port, Vallegre also makes unfortified Douro wines.
