This Atlantic influence, mostly granitic soils, mild climate and high rainfall, are reflected in the freshness, lightness and elegance of the wines of this region. |

ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
Brisa Suave is a wine created to bring a new option to the rapidly-growing category in the States: the Liter bottle. The Vinho Verde Appelation is long-known worldwide for it's affordability, but usually lacks in quality and has never been introduced to the market as a "fun" option. For such a drinkable style of wine, all the options out there have been offered on a 750ml size with very old-school vibes. Combining a casual vibe, a great value, with a high-quality wine is what embraced the creation of this project. Tasting notes: zesty, citrusy, mineraly, floral, green apples, fresh pear.
