O Produtor, tasting note published in May 27th 2023
Deep ruby and violet colour. Fresh and mineral. Floral notes typical from the grape variety and spicy notes from the barrel aging. Soft and silky tannins. A structure that allows a good bottle aging.
Climate: Typically mediterranean and set in the sub-region of Vidigueira, where the climatic conditions are the most temperate of Alentejo and provide an excellent microclimate for the production of quality wines. Soil: Poor land, predominantly of granite and schist. Great pedological potential for the cultivation of vines and for obtaining quality wines. Wine Varieties: The Touriga Nacionalvariety is planted in a plot exposed to the east, following a multi-spaced
trellised system, LYS. The rows have an east/west orientation. Vinification: Manual harvest into 12 kg boxes. At the winery, the grapes were once again
sensible triaged on a vibrating sorting table, fully destemmed and lightly crushed. After a 48 hour period of pre-fermentative cold maceration, the fermentation has occurred in french oak barrels.

Herdade do Rocim
Herdade do Rocim is a property located between Vidigueira and Cuba, in Baixo Alentejo, with about 120 hectares, including 70 hectares of vineyards and 10 hectares of olive groves. Acquired in 2000 by Movicortes, S.A., in the following years there was restructuring and qualification work, consummated with the planting of most of the vineyard that today constitutes the Herdade do Rocim. This process of implantation was made according to specific criteria that allow the production of high quality grapes. The winery is a structuring element of the Herdade do Rocim project, which combines wine production with the aesthetic quality of its architecture and works as a promotional element for the requalification of the region. At Herdade do Rocim all efforts go in the direction of doing well, always improving and with a constant concern for the quality of the wine.
