A sparkling wine from Quinta do Couço

Quinta do Couço is located in Louredo, in the municipality of Póvoa de Lanhoso, in an area that is part of the Alto Ave.

Here, the Atlantic influence, the temperate climate and the granite soils shape the identity of the vineyard and contribute to the freshness of the wines produced on the estate.

It is on this land that we grow the Arinto used to make our IG Minho Brut sparkling wine.
