O Produtor, tasting note published in May 23rd 2007
Citrus yellow colour. Scented aroma of country flowers and vanilla, all intense and expressive. Unctuous, complex, elegant, exuberant taste, but without losing seriousness. Long and affirmative finish.
The wine was produced from Bical grapes harvested at the end of October 2005. Carefully chosen, they were placed in trays to dry in the shade for almost a month.
After a new choice followed by pressing, it was the must to ferment in used barrels. The stage lasted 4 years, until bottling at the end of 2009.
Contains sulphites.

Our grandfather Martinho, a Mogofores farmer, produced red wine and, being one of the rare winemakers that separated white grapes from red ones, made a beautiful and famous white wine. Both were sold in bulk to business houses in the region that bottled it.
Having died at the end of the sixties of the last century, our father, Manuel, took charge of the entire estate whose vineyards he modernised and enlarged, but no longer producing wine for the market.
In the mid-nineties we started winemaking trials with the various grape varieties that had been planted in the meantime (many of which were for the first time in the region). The decision was then taken to start vinification for the market and to build a new winery. The first Campolargo wines were from the 2000 harvest, and the new winery was only built in 2004.
Currently, the third generation is responsible for the vineyard, Jorge Campolargo and the winery and sales, Carlos Campolargo. But it already has the collaboration of the fourth generation, Joana Campolargo, who ensures the administrative support and external relations.
Therefore, we want to maintain and pursue the exclusively familiar character of our winemaking.
