Aveleda Parcela do Convento Loureiro 2019

Terroir takes the lead role in this range of white wines where each year Aveleda select and bottle the best parcels from Aveleda’s vineyards in the Vinho Verde Wine Region. The best that Aveleda has to offer on each vintage. This Loureiro comes from a parcel with an old convent situated on a slope, giving the wine its name but also unparalleled concentration and structure.

Tasting Notes

Of a pale yellow color, Aveleda Parcela do Convento boasts aromas of white flowers, passionfruit and citrus fruits, very typical of the variety. On the palate, this wine shows a powerful concentration, but gentile, and an incredible structure, not common in Loureiro varietals. Notes of elderflower, ripe passionfruit and lime zest are blended in an exquisite minerality, making this one endless and unforgettable.
