O Produtor, tasting note published in May 27th 2018
Intense and complex, impressions of ripe wild fruits harmoniously combined with notes of vanilla from the aging in oak casks. First attack marked by
robustness and character of the wine. Acidity and a structured tannin complement each other, making a harmonious and elegant set. Everything well balanced with the flavors of the fruits of the forest.
Manual harvest for small boxes with careful selection of grapes. Total destemming, fermentation with moderate temperature control in stainless steel vats with daily pumping over and long post-fermentative maceration.
Contains sulphites.

Vallegre – Vinhos do Porto, S.A., is a Portuguese company whose shareholders represent the fifth generation of a family deeply rooted in the Douro region, and which is dedicated to the production of high quality Port Wines and Douro DOC table wines.
It is based at Quinta da Vista Alegre, on the right bank of the Douro river, between the mouth of the river Pinhão and Covas do Douro.
Quinta da Vista Alegre was acquired by the Cunha Barros family in 1965, and incorporated into the Sociedade Agrícola Barros, S.A. Later, in May 1998, the company changed its name to Vallegre – Vinhos do Porto, S.A., resulting from the merging of the names of two of its most important Quintas – Valle Longo and Vista Alegre.
Nowadays, and without ignoring its past and the knowledge acquired and passed down through generations, Vallegre is a dynamic, modern company, that mantains tbe production of the highest quality Port Wines and Douro Doc table wines as its primary aim.
