Origin

Produced in the Vinho Verde region of Portugal, Quinta do Ameal is a renowned estate known for its quality wines. The Bico Amarelo Red is crafted in this cool Atlantic climate, which imparts freshness and elegance to the wine.

Variety

Bico Amarelo Red is primarily made from indigenous Portuguese grape varieties typical of the Vinho Verde region, including:

  • Vinhão
  • Espadeiro
  • Other local red varietals

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo controlled fermentation to preserve the vibrant fruit character and freshness. The wine is aged briefly in stainless steel tanks to maintain its bright acidity and aromatic profile, typical of the Vinho Verde style but in a red expression.

Tasting notes

Bico Amarelo Red displays a deep ruby color with purple hues. On the nose, it offers aromas of ripe red berries, cherries, and subtle floral notes. The palate is fresh and lively, with balanced acidity, soft tannins, and a pleasant mineral finish, reflecting the terroir of the Vinho Verde region.

Food pairings

This versatile red pairs well with a variety of dishes, including:

  • Grilled red meats and poultry
  • Portuguese traditional dishes such as roasted pork or codfish with tomato sauce
  • Cheeses like Serra or aged goat cheese
  • Hearty stews and mushroom-based dishes
