Vinification

This sparkling wine, Montes Claros, was made using selected grapes from the vines of Adega members, and underwent prolonged ageing. The harvest took place in the morning, and after fully destemming and crushing the grapes, the process continued with pressing, cold settling and alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature. With bottling and ageing in the cellar, the wine’s second fermentation is by the tradicional method. After the second fermentation and a prolonged ageing of 18 months, the wine is disgorged. When it is disgorged, we leave some of the “encapsulated yeast” in the bottle. This yeast will have a positive effect on the sensory quality of the wine until the day it is consumed, creating greater aromatic complexity, more unctuousness and more balanced taste.

Tasting Notes

Crystal appearance, citric colour with yellow nuances and fine bubbles.
Fresh tropical fruit and slightly jellied yellow fruit aroma.
Velvety flavour, balanced with a lingering taste of fresh citrus fruit. An aromatic and flavourful wine that has unctuousness and lasting harmony.

How to serve

Ideal as an aperitif, but gastronomically versatile.
