O Produtor, tasting note published in December 22nd 2016
Deep ruby with purple hues. Intense aromas of black fruits, fresh mint, baking spices and toast, supported by bright acidity and finely ploughed tannins. The finish is complex expressing chocolate truffle and minerality.
The vines are planted in very poor soils with a very fine acid texture. The climate is Mediterranean and cooled by the winds of the Serra de São Mamede, providing daily temperature extremes in order to concentrate the acidity necessary for wines capable of ageing. Most of the vineyards are south-facing planted in the foothills of the granite mountains. The challenging growing environment produces very low yields (3tonnes/ha) of concentrated grapes that produce wines of great complexity, elegance and minerality.
