<p></p><p>Anselmo Mendes was born and raised in Monção.</p> <p>It was there that since childhood he became familiar with the culture of the vineyard and the production of wine.</p> <p>The Alvarinho grape variety and its wine, produced there, entered his life in such a way that today Anselmo Mendes and Alvarinho are related.</p>
<p></p><p>In keeping with the family tradition of several generations of Quinta de Golães, we have made this wine from grapes of the Alvarinho variety (more than 85%), in association with two other queen grape varieties, in the fifth and in the region - Loureiro and Trajadura. Combining old strains and new vines, in the unique terroir of this region, we obtained this wine of excellence: "the alvarinho da quinta". Citrus-colored and complex aroma, with pear notes and a little floral touch, resulting from the combination of the three varieties, we can taste a full-bodied, balanced and fresh wine. </p>
<p>Firmamento Loureiro White Wine has delicate, complex and prominently floral aromas, with white rose and orange blossom standing out as very soft and delicate, as well as a fresh, refreshing citrus flavour. On the palate it shows a crystalline freshness on the palate attack and a pleasant fresh and dry minerality. It has a long finish and crisp acidit</p> <p>It goes well with cold salads, shellfish and noble fish</p>
