TASTING NOTES
Bárbara Monteiro and her team at Mainova use sustainable practices in their vineyards and olive groves, resulting in fertile land that produces fresh wines from Alentejo. The Curtimenta undergoes 3 days of skin contact after being hand-harvested by moonlight to preserve fruit quality. It offers aromas of candied orange blossoms and stone fruit, with flavors of ripe peach, orange zest, and light tannins, leading to a lingering finish. This wine pairs well with Mediterranean dishes or fresh seafood.
