AboutCasa de Vilacetinho
Casa de Vilacetinho dates to 1790, on land once held by the Benedictine monastery of Alpendurada. One of Vinho Verde’s early bottling estates, it is particularly known for Avesso, a grape that gives its wines body and structure.
About 30 hectares of vineyards run along mainly south-facing slopes above the Douro near Alpendurada, within Vinho Verde’s Amarante subregion. Granite soils, Atlantic winds and marked changes in temperature between seasons shape the growing conditions.

Portuguese Red
$29.99
A rustic northern Portuguese red with brambly raspberry, sour cherry and violet over a lightly earthy note. The palate is fresh and firmly structured, with grippy tannins and a subtle spritz adding energy. Serve it with a slight chill alongside grilled sausages, roast pork or hearty vegetable dishes; the savoury, mouth-watering finish is built for food.
