O Produtor, tasting note published in November 30th 2020

Deep red color with violet tones. Intense, concentrated, and complex aroma dominated by ripe black fruits such as blackberry, plum, and cassis, as well as balsamic notes like rockrose, resin, cedar, and other exotic woods. The perception of tertiary aromas from its evolution and age also begins, contributing significantly to its aromatic complexity. It has balanced acidity, mature tannins well integrated into its volume and body, leading to a persistent, harmonious, and elegant finish.

A greedy LBV.” – Revista dos Vinhos, July 2019

Manual harvest in 15 kg boxes.

Vinification: It begins with pre-fermentative maceration at a temperature of 10-12ºC. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel lagares with robotized treading at a controlled temperature not exceeding 30ºC, ensuring a strong extraction of the constituents present in the skins. The aromatic intensity and elegance are due to the dominance of the Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacionalgrape varieties, as well as the presence of many other noble Douro grape varieties from very old vines over a hundred years old. Sousão contributes significantly to its structure, concentration, and persistence. Tinto Cão, on the other hand, contributes to its freshness and elegance. In order to optimize quality and the desired profile, a careful qualitative selection of the aguardente was carried out due to its organoleptic elegance. This blend of aromas, combined with those from the intense extraction, results in the intensity and elegance typical of an LBV.

Aging: Maturation/elevage in used 640-liter French oak vessels for 2 years. During this period, the wine undergoes rackings, analyses, and tastings that allow monitoring its evolution and defining the final blend.

It pairs wonderfully with “papos de anjo” (traditional Portuguese pastries made with eggs).

Duorum Vinhos

Two Winemakers who have made history in Portugal over the last few decades, in two regions that the world recognises as being of high quality and having strong personality, the Douro and Alentejo, meet again in a project thought out for the Douro, in the regions of the Cima Corgo and Hight Douro, two exceptional and protected terroirs. Thus, Duorum is born, a project “from two”, envisaged and brought to life in the age-old vineyards of the Douro.

Duorum Wines started in January 2007 as an expression of wishes of João Portugal Ramos and José Maria Soares Franco wishes to join their activities as professional winemakers in one wine production project from Douro region, with unique characteristics and an international dimension.
