Description: From all native Portuguese grapes, the prevalent grape in this blend is Loureiro. António and Sara Lopes vinified their wines by parcel rather than by varietal, which means this Vinho Verde is a direct product of the vineyard from which it came. Biotite, the Cuveé’s namesake, is the dominant mineral present in the Granitic soils of this vineyard, lending a racy mineral quality to this wine with very restrained fruit and floral.
