Quinta da Pedra is one of the most historical properties in the Alto Minho region, dating back to the 17th century. It is situated in the heart of Monção and Melgaço, a sub region of the Vinho Verde appellation, where Alvarinho excels. The property has 30ha of vineyards, completely dry farmed, benefiting from pure granite soils. The vines, seated in a very gentle valley, benefit from plain solar exposure for perfect ripeness. Two wines are produced here: Milagres by Quinta da Pedra, which is our “perfect” Alvarinho and Graça da Pedra, which shows a more young version of this variety. From time to time, in exceptional vintages, a special edition of Milagres can be released as “Purple Edition” with even more bottle ageing.

Bright lemon-yellow with greenish hues. Pronounced aroma of citrus fruit such as lime and grapefruit, with some notes of stone fruit. Medium-bodied, with vibrant acidity that runs through the entire palate. Mineral palate, reminiscent of spring water. Long and refreshing finish.
