The Vera story
After 12 years living abroad, I returned to my native Portugal. A friend in NY suggested I find some delicious Vinho Verde to send to the States. I told him if he came to visit me we would find it together. We started with a basic, yet eccentric idea, to offer an exceptional Vinho Verde.
Vera meaning true, is light and fresh as the maritime climate of northern Portugal where it comes from. Drink it as my family does, chilled as an end-of-day relaxing drink, or as an accompaniment to light meals, like sushi and seafood, chicken, salads and pastas.
We think we found the Vinho Verde holy grail and invite you to decide for yourself.
VERA WHITE & VERA ROSE
Vera meaning true, is light and fresh as the maritime climate of northern Portugal where it comes from.
We are now showing our new 2017 vintages.
VERA WHITE
Vera Vinho Verde is 100%estate fruit, estate bottled, low RS and a very light carbonation, allowing for a medium bodied and better balanced wine. The fact that fruit comes from the estate’s 104 plots (yes 104!) provides consistent quality from vintage to vintage. Vera Vinho Verde is one of the great offers from Portugal and from the region.
VERA ROSE
Vera Rose is 100% estate fruit, estate bottled, low RS and a very light carbonation, allowing for a medium body, more balanced wine. The fact that fruit comes from the estate’s 104 plots (yes 104!) provides consistent quality from vintage to vintage. Vera Rosé is one of the original, distinct Rosé offerings from the Vinho Verde region and from Portugal.
