Refined, delicate wines that will amaze you. If you want to surprise your guests with something different, open a bottle of Monologo. Your guests will be amazed; jaws will drop. Is this Portuguese? Aromatic and smooth, yet a lush spectacle on the palate. That's what Monologo wines are all about.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The Monologo wines from Portugal\u003c\/h2\u003e \nWhen you think of Portuguese wines, port often immediately comes to mind. This sweet, fortified wine has been inextricably linked to Portugal for centuries. Although viticulture is centuries old, the popularity of Portuguese wines has not. This only came about in 1986, the year Portugal, along with Spain, joined the European Union. Membership came with the necessary agricultural subsidies, which the Portuguese government cleverly used, giving Portuguese wineries a chance to grow.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n This is also the case with Monologo wines, which have benefited greatly from the success of Portuguese wines. It is part of the massive A\u0026amp;D winery, which has received international awards and praise for its innovations. Their Vinho Verde, for example, was considered innovative. Monologo wines have also received considerable praise, partly due to their perfectly balanced wines.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The vineyards of Monologo\u003c\/h2\u003e \nPortuguese winemaking is characterized by a large number of indigenous grape varieties. This certainly doesn't have to be a disadvantage. Just look at Italian winemaking, which consists primarily of local grape varieties. This is certainly the case with Monologo. Arinto, Avesso, and Malvasia grape varieties may sound unfamiliar, but they are gaining a growing following. Thanks to the unique terroir and proximity to the ocean, these grapes are soft and refined, producing delicate wines.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The finest wines from Monologo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n Monologo's strength lies in its varietal wines. \"Varietal wines\" means each wine is made from just one grape variety and is therefore not a blend. Monologo does this to showcase the power and quality of each individual grape variety to the wine drinker. For example, in Monologo Avesso P67, the Avesso dominates, while in Monologo Malvasia Fina P70, it's the Malvasia.","products":[{"product_id":"monologo-arinto","title":"Monólogo Arinto","description":"Monólogo Arinto P24 is a monovarietal wine produced with Arinto grapes from the P24 plot at Quinta de Santa Teresa.

Alexandre \u0026amp; Dialina Gomes are technical engineers with a deep passion for wine. It's no wonder, then, that the winery bears their initials. Their background is immediately evident in the exceptionally healthy vineyards and meticulously clean winery. The wines are made from indigenous varieties such as Avesso, Arinto, and Malvasia Fina, with minimal intervention. The result is incredibly pure wines with abundant grape authenticity, expression, and freshness.\n\n\n \nMonólogo represents a single grape from a distinct vineyard. Each wine in the Monólogo series has a \"monologue\": its own story with its own character. This character is depicted in the animated labels. The label of this Arinto depicts a woman with flowers and a basket of fruit.

Minimal intervention is maintained throughout the process, allowing the authentic characteristics to fully emerge.\n\n\n \nThe Arinto is a fresh wine, with delicate aromas and good acidity. In the glass, it has a crisp, sparkling straw yellow color. Initially, the aromas are somewhat closed, but after a little rolling and a little time, a lovely freshness emerges on the nose, with citrus fruits like lime and a light floral note. On the palate, the wine is slightly minerally and has a lively yet balanced acidity, leaving a fresh and pleasant finish.","brand":"Poot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775788257359,"sku":"10146","price":10.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/MonologoArinto.png?v=1782739844"},{"product_id":"monologo-avesso","title":"Monólogo Avesso","description":"Monologo Avesso P67 is a monovarietal white wine produced by Quinta de Santa Teresa.
