Colheita Red
A blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Sousão, this wine comes from two different parcels of land in two different Douro sub-regions at two different altitudes. The grapes are carefully selected and fermented in stainless steel tanks before aging in oak barrels for approximately twelve months.
Wine Production
The grapes are de-stemmed and gently crushed in stainless steel lagares (troughs) by robotized treading. Pre-fermentative maceration takes place at low temperatures. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature of 28º C (max.). Aged in French oak barrels for 12 months (30% new oak barrels and 70% second and third year barrels).
Tasting Notes
A richly aromatic wine of black cherries, tar, mocha, and a hint of violets. On the palate, this wine's rich texture is balanced perfectly against a zesty acidity, and rounded out by well-integrated, fine-grained tannins. This wine begs for another sip as its mellifluous flavors develop well into the finish.
Food Pairing
Ths wine pairs perfectly with choice cuts of steak, pot roasts, and hearty casseroles like cassoulet.
