He had a very special relationship with the family maintaining weekly visits to our old winery, in most of which Ricardo Diogo had the great privilege of being present. This Verdelho 1995 is the fourth wine of a serie of bottlings that pay tribute to Mr. Manuel Eugénio as a way of enduring the long-term relationship between our families. In April 2019, 1030 bottles have been filled, all individually numbered.
