Quinta do Ameal Loureiro is a vibrant, elegant white wine from the historic Lima Valley in Portugal's Vinho Verde region, the birthplace of the Loureiro grape. Produced by an estate established in 1710, this wine showcases the purity and character of single-varietal Loureiro with citrus fruits, floral notes, and exceptional ageing potential.

Why You'll Love It

This is Vinho Verde with real depth and character—vibrant and balanced with a fruity, lingering finish and great capacity for evolution. Quinta do Ameal is a historic estate dedicated to showcasing the Loureiro grape at its finest, and this wine demonstrates why the Lima Valley is considered the birthplace of this noble variety. Unlike many simple Vinho Verde wines, this offers complexity, structure, and the ability to age gracefully, making it exceptional value for a single-estate, single-varietal Portuguese white.

Vineyard & Production

Sourced from Quinta do Ameal's historic estate in the Lima Valley, Vinho Verde region, where the Loureiro grape has been cultivated since the estate's founding in 1710. The Lima Valley's unique microclimate and terroir create ideal conditions for producing Loureiro with exceptional aromatic intensity and natural balance. Careful vineyard management and gentle winemaking preserve the grape's natural freshness and varietal character.

Tasting Notes

Dominated by citrus fruits and floral notes on the nose, with hints of white peach and subtle minerality. Vibrant and balanced on the palate with crisp acidity, fresh fruit character, and a fruity, lingering finish. Medium-bodied with excellent structure and ageing potential.

Perfect Pairings

A versatile wine perfect with seafood, grilled fish, shellfish, sushi, light salads, goat cheese, or Portuguese cuisine. Also excellent with Asian dishes, ceviche, or simply as a refreshing aperitif.
