O Produtor, tasting note published in November 27th 2021
It is a wine with a beautiful violet colour without being opaque; it has an intense and complex aroma, full of character and delicacy. In the mouth, it has a strong presence but is very fresh and smooth. A seductive Dão with a velvety texture and great depth that will grow immensely in the bottle over the coming years.
The vineyards, totalling 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 M.O.B. red wine comes from the Seia vineyards, vinified in lagares and stainless steel vats with little extraction and at low temperatures. It aged for 12 months in oak barrels, 30% new and the rest used.

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.
