Considered by many to be the best Portuguese "eau-de-vie" and ranking alongside the finest Armagnacs, Adega Velha is the result of many years of work and dedication. Producing an old brandy such as Adega Velha requires time and much, much more…
Tasting Notes: Amber and clear in appearance, it presents a complex and harmonious bouquet, reminiscent of the aroma of berries and wildflowers, surrounded by a delicate sense of smell and hardwood aftertaste. Its origin in aromatic and fresh grapes with low alcohol content gives it the softness, velvety and complex aromas so appreciated.
Distillation: High-quality grapes are carefully selected in the vineyards of Quinta da Aveleda. The result is a light wine, balanced acidity and alcohol content. The wine is then subjected to slow distillation in a still cared Charentais, brought from the Cognac region in France. The wonderful amber colour and rich bouquet, stem from a long rest (12 yrs) in oak casks from the Limousin region, famous for its unique characteristics of wood.
Recommendations: Ideal to serve as a digestive. Must be served between 22 and 25ºC.
