Azevedo Loureiro Alvarinho
![Tasting Notes](https://evaton.com/wp-content/themes/Evaton/includes/images/product/tasting_notes2.png)
Clear and bright with citrine-yellow tones. An expansive aroma, with notes of citrus and wild white flowers. Hints of stone (white peach) and citrus fruit are also present on the palate, alongside a balanced acidity that provides great freshness. This wine has a harmonious, fruity finish. The profile of this wine allows for immediate consumption, but it will evolve positively in the bottle for at least 3 years.

The wine is vinified at Quinta de Azevedo, and undergoes gentle destemming on arrival to preserve the full character of the grapes. The must is channeled at controlled temperatures and protected from oxidation by inert gases. Soft pressing in a pneumatic press takes place with some pre-fermentation maceration. Alcoholic fermentation occurs between 60ºF-64ºF, using selected yeasts, primarily the native yeast QA23. ABV 11.5%
