O Produtor, tasting note published in October 17th 2019
The beautiful ruby colour of this Pinot Noir reveals the structure and power of this wine, with typical notes of cherry and redcurrant harmoniously integrated with hints of vanilla. Long and fruity aftertaste.
Pinot Noir is considered by most the best grape variety in the world, however it is certainly the most dificult to work with. With a small bundle, low yield, a thin and sensitive skin, this renowned French variety has been one of the biggest viticulture and winemaking challenges since its plantation in 2001.
This Quinta de Cidrô Pinot Noir demonstrates a different facet than usual as it unites the elegance and finesse of this French Variety, with the structure, minerality and acidity of the Douro. It presents a bright ruby colour and typical Pinot notes of pomegranate, gooseberry and raspberry, which combine perfectly with its nuances of vanilla and coffee from its 12 month ageing in oak. A wine with a very balanced structure of intense, round fruit flavours that create harmony on the palate and a long, persistent finish.
