150 years ago, following the dream of the company’s founder, Manoel Pedro Guedes, Quinta da Aveleda produced its first white wine. This wine was tasted by the main critics of the time, in Berlin and Paris, and immediately gaining quality recognition with a gold and silver medal. This is the starting point for Quinta da Aveleda, a winery of great quality with products that are appreciated by many–and still run by the Guedes family.
Quinta da Aveleda makes great wine through working hard at getting all the little bits right: monitor plants for disease to avoid outbreaks, frequent maturation checks, night harvesting to take advantage of cool temperatures, and vigorous pruning to lower yields.
The wine is made by using low-pressure presses and low temperature fermentation in order to preserve the true character and purity of the grape variety. The winemaking process uses minimal intervention, which forces the winemaker to manage very carefully the few variables available, like harvesting each parcel at the right time. While most Vinho Verde is made for early consumption, Quinta da Aveleda makes age-worthy wines.
All this hard work has paid off: their 2021 Aveleda Alvarinho and Aveleda Loureiro were awarded 90 points each by the Wine Enthusiast and both received the Silver Medal at the International Wine Challenge; their 2020 Aveleda Parcela do Roseiral and Aveleda Solos de Granito received 93 points each, again by the Wine Enthusiast. These are their most recent awards–they have garnered many more.
