O Produtor, tasting note published in May 28th 2021

Deep ruby in color. Its aroma reveals an earthy note and ripe red fruit with amplitude. In the mouth we are surprised by its freshness and round tannins. A cheerful, complex profile with a classy finish and prolongation. Silky wine with great gastronomic aptitude.

Freixo

The grapes of the different varieties selected are harvested according to their ideal state of ripeness, in boxes of 20 kg and immediately vinified. Stripped and transported by gravity to the fermentation vats, this takes place at moderate temperatures for 20 days with a prolonged maceration that gives this wine an extreme aromatic complexity. Its 12 months ageing in new French wood gives it a remarkable complexity and elegance. The maturation in bottle takes place for more than 6 months.

Quinta Do Freixo

The 300ha of Herdade do Freixo, includes the vineyards and the underground cellar.
In these Alentejo properties, located in the small village of Freixo, northwest of the Municipality of Redondo and covered by the Municipal Ecological Reserve (REN), a quiet landscape stands out, with asymmetries in color, relief and textures of the land, provided by different agricultural activities such as livestock grazing, arable crops and the area of montado and cork oak, included in the network of environmental protection and enhancement.
This landscape eden, whose essence is respect for nature, seasonally receives flocks of migratory species and the very rare Black Stork, which is observed in Portugal, only in the most interior regions, inhospitable, isolated and with little human disturbance. A thousand-year-old olive tree estate surrounds the irrigation dam, forming our Olive Garden, but we can also glimpse these trees that tell hundreds or thousands of years of history throughout the estate. They have been able to resist the passing of time, to surprise us today with their uniqueness and magnificence.
