Serrade's sparkling wine is pure Alvarinho made by the traditional method: the base wine is bottled, ferments a second time in the bottle and rests at least nine months on the lees before the bottles are riddled and disgorged. It carries the Espumante de Qualidade designation from Vinho Verde, sub-region Monção e Melgaço.
The producer describes a fine, persistent mousse, a mineral nose with the grape clearly present, and good acidity with a fruity finish. Brut, 6.3 g/l residual sugar and 7.2 g/l acidity. Serve at 6-8 °C.
