The grapes harvested were selected in the vineyard and then introduced into the vats with 40% destemming and 60% whole bunch, allowing to extract more gently the colour and aroma compounds during 2 weeks of alcoholic fermentation totally in stainless steel vats, having completed the malolactic fermentation in stainless steel. After ageing 50% in used 3 year 400 L and 225 L French oak barrels, and 50% in second year barrels; where it remained for 9 months. Filling and ageing for 20 months in the bottle.

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.
