O Produtor, tasting note published in November 27th 2023
This red has a light colour, is low in alcohol, fresh and easy to drink like the wines of the past but has the aromatic beauty, the intensity of fruit in the mouth and the balance provided by current viticulture and oenology.
The vineyards, a total of fifteen hectares, ten located in Seia and five in Gouveia made up of old vines, are situated in one of the coldest places in the region, at the foot of the Serra da Estrela. The combination of altitude, soils and the grape varieties on the property convinced us that this would be the right place to go. This Lote 3 seeks to be an old Dão with a modern approach. It comes from the three vineyards located Gouveia and Seia. It was vinified in stainless steel vats, with gentle extractions. It aged for 12 months in 225 litre used oak barrels.

M.O.B.
This project – M.O.B. (Moreira, Olazabal e Borges) – was born from the will of three winemakers, Jorge Moreira, Francisco Olazabal and Jorge Serôdio Borges who wanted to make a wine together. The Dão wine region was chosen due to our common admiration for old wines and was born during a tasting of wines from the ’60s and 70’s decade, which surprised us with their elegance and freshness. The Identity and complexity of these wines are, in fact, remarkable and served as an element of inspiration to create our MOB wines, whether white or red.
