We think

This is a beautiful, sparkling wine made using the traditional Champagne method. Coming from the Bairrada region, it is from what is considered to be the best region for sparkling wines in Portugal. The wine has delicate flavours and a beautiful foaming mousse-like texture on the mouth. It’s a beauty and very comparable to many Champagnes though without the heavy price tag.
