This is our interpretation of a variety usually intended for Port wines or for blended Douros. It usually produces less complex wines, and is only useful for blending. It is rarely bottled alone as it does not have a structure capable of withstanding aging in the bottle. However, when coming from old vine parcels it can surprise us. It reveals an intense fruitiness, recalling so many moments of the Harvest…
In the mouth, it excels in harmony. Very round tannins, voluminous, and a well-defined, fresh and powerful aftertaste. A fantastic red, capable of breaking prejudices.
