The Wine

Benefitting from its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, the wine Aveleda Reserva da Família expresses a singular freshness. The low yielding vines, planted in clay and limestone soil, provide a unique complexity and concentration to this wine presenting nutty aromas given by the French oak barrels where the Chardonnay ferments and ages during 6 months.

Grape Varieties

Chardonnay, Maria Gomes from old vines.
