O Produtor, tasting note published in May 27th 2017
This wine shows intense, light, floral, mentholated aromas. It is a typical Douro wine, bitter combined with the sweetness of the fruit, excellent barrel and good extraction.
The Poeira tries to be a balanced and elegant wine. In general the wines of the Douro are supported in the tannin, but the Poeira is sustained in the acidity. A very drinkable and appetizing wine when new but at the same time has the capacity to evolve. Each wine is the mirror of the vineyards that give it origin, maintaining its profile but following the variations that occur in the vineyard year after year.
Contains sulphites.

The farmhouse is situated in the Douro in Provesende, along a hillside in the Pinhão valley, on the right bank of the river of the same name. It has 9 hectares of vineyard, 2 olive groves and 3 hectares of forest. The vineyard has a northern exposure, which becomes a key aspect to the table wine style. Temperatures in the region are always very high in summer, and on a north-facing slope the ripening of the grapes is always slower, better preserving the aromas, flavors and acidity. The ruined building next to the old orange tree has been reclaimed and now serves the house and cellar functions. Right in the middle of the vineyard, set in a breathtaking, intense and breathtaking landscape. The winery is minimalist with four traditional stone wineries (with temperature control) and an old vertical press. It also has an air conditioned cellar for stage barrels with thick shale walls. It is a wine cellar designed to create wines in a very slow and careful way, with everything that is necessary to allow the full expression of our “terroir”. Dust tries to be a balanced and elegant wine. In general the wines of the Douro are supported in the tannin, but the Dust is sustained in the acidity. A very drinkable and appetizing wine when new but at the same time has the capacity to evolve. I intend that each wine be the mirror of the vineyards that give rise to it, maintaining its profile but following the variations that occur in the vineyard year after year. The “dust” is telling the story of my fifth. “Did not want to remain in the roughness of his land and sought in finesse his own character.
