Wine Information
When Vera Vinho Verde was launched with the 2010 vintage, we aimed to fill a gap in the market for high-quality Vinho Verde. Our goal was to produce a superior wine using estate-grown fruit, with lower residual sugar and less carbonation, setting it apart from regional norms. In the 1950s and 60s, the Portuguese government, influenced by the wine industry, resisted the influx of Coca-Cola and soft drinks. During this time, Vinho Verde became a popular choice for its light alcohol and gentle carbonation, ideal for casual lunches and social gatherings. The Vinho Verde DOC, located in northwest Portugal just north of the Douro River Valley, is known for its rainy, mountainous, and lush landscape. Vera Vinho Verde comes from the Basto sub-region, which features granite soil and vines aged between 10 and 35 years. The region experiences cold, damp winters and mild springs and summers.
