O Produtor, tasting note published in November 28th 2019
Medium red colour. Expressive in aroma, it presents some floral and wild fruit nuances, dominated by a fresh balsamic profile. On the palate, it is elegant with a markedly mineral character. With great balance and elegance, this wine presents the simple (uncomplicated) style we have set out to achieve.
It started at the beginning of September, with the aim of maintaining the high levels of acidity, balance and freshness of the wines. As in the previous year, the early start avoided the over-ripening of some more exposed vines and the rain at the end of the month. The grapes were harvested in an optimum state of ripeness, with a high acidity content and balanced sugar levels. After selection at the entrance of the winery, the grapes were 100% destemmed and fermentation took place in stainless steel vats with 8 to 15 days of skin maceration. Part of the wine was aged in used French oak barrels for 12 months.

Quinta Maria Izabel
Cradle of what we are and what we do: from the river were made the mountains and the people who breathe this origin.
The Douro to lose sight of: this is the landscape, this is the framework of our wines. Quinta Maria Izabel extends over 130 hectares in one of the most privileged areas of the Douro region. An impetus transformed into a great project. An idea that reveals itself to be, after all, more than a Brazilian dream in Portuguese lands. Welcome to an idea transformed into a great project.
