O Produtor, tasting note published in May 23rd 2022
Pale citrine colour, with a very attractive aroma with notes of ripe tropical fruit and minerality. In the mouth it shows great freshness, persistence, balance and elegance. A fresh white wine to drink without hesitation.
The grapes are harvested manually and transported in 25 kg boxes, selected, destemmed and pressed at the entrance of the winery. After clarification of the must, using the static decantation method at low temperature for a period of around 24 hours, the must ferments in stainless steel tanks with temperature control at around 16ºC.

Quinta dos Cottas
Located in the Alijó Valley, Quinta de Cottas is a 10 ha property that enjoys the conditions of excellence for the production of Douro and Port wines.
In 2006, Isabel and Pedro Carmo were attracted by a vineyard that once belonged to a large and important quinta. Their great love for wine and the Douro valley made it impossible for them not to take the opportunity to produce their own wines in this unique region giving rise to this wine project. They quickly started the reconversion of the property, recovering the existing old vineyard plot and planting the remaining available area. From the very beginning they defined that the approach at Quinta de Cottas would be to capture the essence of the Douro’s main grape varieties, producing high quality wines with a distinct personality that expressed their unique terroir.
