O Produtor, tasting note published in May 27th 2017
This wine has a deep ruby color and aromas of ripe fruit and floral notes, typical of the caste. In the mouth it is vinous, full bodied and elegant. Intense, mature and specific of the "Terroir" of the Douro, a positive aging in the bottle is predicted for many years after the bottling.
The nobility of the Tinta Roriz grape variety, selected from the older vineyards of Quinta de Seara d’Ordens, combined with soil and micro-climate, gave this wine personality and unique character. This quality wine is not filtered or stabilized by the cold, so it is recommended to serve with care as it can create a deposit. The grapes were selected from the Quinta’s older vines and 100% destemmed. Vinified in stainless steel tank with temperature control. The wine aged for 4 months in new French oak barrels and 6 months in the bottle.

Quinta Seara d'Ordens
We were at the end of the eighteenth century, when the Leite family acquired a large place near the spot of Poiares Seara. Its owner, fascinated by the beauty of the place and its excellent location, access promptly invested in the property and the planting of vineyards, olive and almond trees.
Years later, his son, although a military career, never stopped worrying about the property and its development. Meanwhile he became the commander of the Lamego’s barracks, but still spent much time on their ownership of Seara. During his absence from the barracks soldiers were sent to Seara to receive orders of the commander. The popular, admired by the passage of soldiers on horseback, asked:
-Where to go?
The soldiers responded that:
-We go to Quinta da Seara receive orders from the commander …
So from that point, the place is now called the “Quinta da Seara D’Ordens”.
