Muros Antigos Loureiro

Muros Antigos Loureiro comes from Lima

sub region, birth place of Loureiro grape

variety.

With strong Atlantic influence, this region

presents granitic soils, deep and poor in

organic matter. Along the Lima valley,

with southern exposure, the vineyards in

half-hillside provide all the freshness of

the Atlantic Ocean. The terroir of this region

gives the wines freshness, aromatic

exuberance as well as a crystalline acidity

and a marked salinity.

Vinification

Grapes owned by the company, acquired

from a group of vineyards in the Lima

valley, handpicked grapes into small boxes

and carried to the winery in a short period

of time. In a refrigerated environment and

in a short period of time the grapes arrive

at our reception. Total de-stemming with

a short skin maceration. Cold clarification

at 12ºC. Fermentation with controlled

velocity and temperature. Minimum 3

month ageing on fine lees with regular

bâtonnage.

Tasting notes

Floral aroma, characteristic of the Loureiro

variety, the presence of white petal

flower aromas is part of this wine’s character.

Citric and fresh, on the nose the

orange blossom and jasmine accompany

the light fruity touch. The palate is balanced

and mainly marked by crystalline

and vibrant acidity. Muros Antigos Loureiro

is a light, balanced and crispy wine.

that it brings from the nose. Elegant and mouthwatering end.
