BiAmar 2024

IVV / Fortified / Raul Filipe Amorim de Abreu

Amber. Notes of toasted almond, dry foliage, some menthol and beeswax. Unctuous and well-balanced, it has an exotic profile but a pleasant flavour. A curious fortified wine from Loureiro.

BiAmar 2024 – Tasting Notes by Luís Gradíssimo

The freshness of Minho meets the comforting warmth of a fortified wine. ✨

Imagine the fresh aroma of fennel and herbal notes, wrapped in the warm touch of cinnamon and the elegance of dried orange. 🍊🍂

BiAmar is the world’s only fortified wine made exclusively from Loureiro. On the palate, it reveals a well-kept secret: an enveloping sweetness, perfectly balanced by the vibrant acidity that is characteristic of the Loureiro grape.

A deliciously simple fortified wine, yet surprisingly well balanced.

Serve chilled as an aperitif or alongside that special dessert. 🥂

IVV / Fortified Wine / Raul Filipe Amorim de Abreu

Fortified wine made from the Loureiro grape variety. Amber in colour. The nose reveals tea leaf, almond, white fruit preserve and apricot. Velvety and balanced, it offers a very interesting interplay between sweetness and acidity, reminiscent of a late-harvest wine. A luscious finish. Serve chilled.
