O Produtor, tasting note published in January 19th 2019

Color: Bright, intense, and deep red.
Nose: Intense and exuberant, it is very fruity, with aromas of wild berries like cassis and mint, along with some blackberry. Slight notes of wood that are very well integrated.
Palate: Very tasty, fruity, and elegant. It is well-balanced, with smooth, high-quality tannins and excellent acidity. This balanced combination of power and elegance certainly contributes to its aging potential, making the wine benefit from a few years in the bottle.

Lavradores de Feitoria

A field blend from old vines over 60 years old, sourced from different estates of Lavradores de Feitoria, revealing the complexity, richness, and tradition of Douro wine blends. Vinified with foot treading in traditional granite lagares, it ages in French oak barrels, with the most balanced grapes selected to create a sublime blend. Ready to drink upon release, it reflects the best of what is produced in the Douro, and for this reason, it is a wine with great aging potential.

Vinification: Fermentation in traditional lagares and oak vats with prolonged maceration.

Aging: New French oak barrels for 14 months.

Pairing: More elaborate and complex dishes of red meats, game, and fatty fish.

Lavradores de Feitoria

Lavradores de Feitoria, Vinhos de Quinta S.A. is a unique project, created in September 2000 as a result of the union of 15 farmers, owners of 18 estates distributed across the best terroirs of the Douro, spread across the three sub-regions (Baixo Corgo, Cima Corgo, and Douro Superior). Currently, the company’s structure includes 48 shareholders, of which 15 are grape producers, and 19 estates. Together, they comprise a total vineyard area of over 600 hectares.

These producers – with distinct stakes in the company’s capital, under a single brand, a single winery, and a single winemaking team – came together to share resources and create synergies to achieve what they could not alone. For the first time in the Douro, a group of determined locals combined knowledge and experience, innovation, and tradition. A collective and supportive effort that marked a new era for the Douro.

Sharing and association, coordinated in a modern, reasonable, and intelligent manner, are the underlying values of Lavradores de Feitoria. The goal from the outset was to create balanced, elegant wines with aging potential, based on a declared commitment to the excellence and tradition of the Douro.

With 19 estates spread throughout the Douro, Lavradores de Feitoria manages to obtain the best raw material, with grapes of all varieties (even the lesser-known ones), vines of all ages, planted at various altitudes, with different exposures, in a huge diversity of soils.
