Quinta da Pellada
The old vineyard of Quinta da Pellada is our greatest genetic heritage, where a large ampelographic collection has been planted, representing the varieties always present in the vineyards of the Dão Demarcated Region. We have identified, reproduced and vinified some of these indigenous varieties which in recent decades, for various reasons, sometimes qualitative, sometimes productive, have lost expression in the region and in the country. In order to recognize and interpret their value, this work of recovery has given rise to the release of some wines. Wines which are produced on a small quantity, after careful selection throughout the Quinta da Pellada vineyard from the healthiest plants of each variety. From this diversity, we have highlighted three fields that gave rise to Quinta da Pellada “Alto”; Quinta da Pellada “Casa”; Quinta da Pellada “49”. Without changing anything to the Quinta da Pellada wine, which maintains its normal blend, in which these parcels have a great expression, we decided to bottle separately a small part of these interpretative studies of specificity of each of tee micro-terroirs, to show them “Alto” ( from the highest parcel). This block, as the name implies (“Alto” means higher), is located at the highest height. Here there is a predominance of the varieties Jaen, Alvarelhão, Tinta Pinheira Tinta Carvalha, Bastardo, among others with a reduced expression such as Touriga Nacional, Português Azul, and Negro Mouro.
