Glass wine bottles come in different colours, which can depend on the aesthetics, cost or identity : We can find amber coloured bottles, green ones, black, clear, blue...
Coloured bottles help protect wine from light,preventing it from oxidising.
So why are some wines bottled in blue bottles? Thecolour blue is identified with serenity, calm, trust, freshness, the sea and the oceans, in short: liquid.
with a clear reference to the sea on the label, the blue bottle evokes its place of origin, the Rias Baixas in Galicia.
A fresh Albariño wine, with hints of citrus fruit and flowers above all, it is an ideal wine topair with any seafood, shellfish and fish.
a Valencian Murviedro wine which brings out the full splendour of the Muscat grapes. Tropical fruit, lychees, passion fruit and an array of floral scents are a true reflection of the Mediterranean sun.
It makes an ideal wine for an aperitif , fish rice dishes, fideuá pasta dishes, starters and all kinds of salad.
a pioneer winery in terms of design which invites us to "Live in Blue”, a true declaration of intent where the colour of the bottle goes beyond the receptacle itself.
Albariño Atlantico,a clear reference to the Ocean air that blows over the vineyards, and which is also evident on the label. Freshness, fruit and the sea air make this wine a perfect choice from among all the wines from the Galician rias.
The thermal paper of the label on Mar de Frades will help us enjoy this wine at the right temperature. A blue ship emerges from the waves on the logo when the temperature falls under 11ºC, the ideal temperature for drinking this wine.
