O Produtor, tasting note published in June 23rd 2023

This red wine is complex. Visually, it presents a brilliant clarity of cherry red color with a medium intensity and tears with long persistence. On the nose, this wine exhibits a pronounced intensity aroma characterized by mint, red fruit, and compote. The effect of French oak barrel is noticeable, with notes of caramel and coffee. The taste reveals the absence of sweetness, refreshing acidity, balanced, with sufficient alcohol content, full-bodied with rich and dry tannins. The mouthfeel aroma is of superior quality, similar to the nose, adding a sensation of freshness. The persistence is of low intensity and pleasant quality, with correct balance.

EON

It’s a limited edition of 635 bottles from a blend of three years, 2020, 2021, and 85% from 2022, of two grape varieties from different regions: Dão and Lisbon, Jaen, and Tinta Amarela, respectively. A wine of minimal intervention, of superior quality. It has an honest, elegant, and balanced profile.

The EON concept is a blend wine, to be released every three years or when we believe we have the qualitative conditions to launch it. This is its first edition.

Vinification: It results from excellence, sustainable viticulture, with minimal intervention, with a simple principle of respecting the terroir and the particularity of the year.

Viticulture: Only the best bunches were received. Each grape variety was vinified separately in its region in carbonic maceration. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine results from the tears and manual press where it aged in 500-liter French oak barrels, with medium-high toast, from different uses, for a period of about 12 months where malolactic fermentation took place. Available to constitute the blend, consideration was given to one barrel from 2020, one barrel from 2021, and two barrels from 2022 of each grape variety. After studying the percentage of grape/barrel/year combinations to incorporate into the blend, the best wine resulted. Bottled: June 17, 2023.

It is a wine with an aging potential of about seven years, but can be consumed immediately. As for gastronomic pairings, it can accompany a cheese and charcuterie board, salads, fish dishes, pasta, white meats, and grilled dishes. It is an excellent companion to drink alone or accompanied, in a relaxed moment.

Correia Lino & Ribas Fernandes, Lda.

A family project created by two cousins ​​passionate about wine, João Correia Lino and Manuel Ribas Fernandes, who share the idea of ​​creating a sustainable structure combining wines of superior quality with support for environmental and social projects. Wines from limited productions and low intervention that allow the purity of the grape varieties to be appreciated.

“João Correia Lino seems like a poet when he talks about wine. He sees what others cannot reach, he detests the obvious, and refuses to do more of the same. With his cousin Manuel Ribas Fernandes, he created a project – Cronos – to work with those grape varieties that, historically, were somehow forgotten or sidelined.” – Edgardo Pacheco, in the newspaper Público

We are a carbon-neutral project, offsetting all our carbon emissions and those of our partners. A project to be recognized for the good wine produced, but mainly for the good it practices.

Currently, we are focused on producing wines with limited editions and two different concepts: CRONO (single varietal wines) and EON (blend wine). This year, we are also planting vineyards in Escaroupim, Tejo with the following grape varieties: Alicante Branco, Fernão-Pires, Trincadeira das Pratas, and Bastardo. With the aim of creating another concept.
