Beautiful and attractive yellow citrus color. This wine is attractive and fresh. Aromatic intensity with green apples, pears, fresh herbs like mint and grass. Very mineral. Well balanced, fresh, dry and crispy. The intensity of its flavor is dominated by lemons and fresh citric fruit with a persistent finish.
Clean aroma with average intensity. Citrus and mineral notes. The palate is dry, fresh, light body and medium acidity. Good intensity of flavor, with hints of herbs, a buttery touch and very surprisingly creamy texture.
Its vineyards stretch along the banks of the river which gives it its name, the River Mondego. In 1996 the estate’s old vines were submitted to a profound restructuring process and, since then, a number of plantations have taken place with the objective of producing high quality wines.
