Freixo

The grapes from Alvarinho, Arinto and Sauvignon Blanc were harvested during the cool morning period on the slope of Serra d’Ossa; they were macerated 24 hours before being destemmed and pressed. Fermentation takes place individually for each grape variety at low temperatures and 2/3 of the lot in new French oak barrels. After a long maturation of the wine of 4 months with batonnage in an underground cellar under optimal conditions of humidity and temperature, the blend is prepared, filtered and bottled young, in order to maintain all the fruit and freshness.

Quinta Do Freixo

The 300ha of Herdade do Freixo, includes the vineyards and the underground cellar.
In these Alentejo properties, located in the small village of Freixo, northwest of the Municipality of Redondo and covered by the Municipal Ecological Reserve (REN), a quiet landscape stands out, with asymmetries in color, relief and textures of the land, provided by different agricultural activities such as livestock grazing, arable crops and the area of montado and cork oak, included in the network of environmental protection and enhancement.
This landscape eden, whose essence is respect for nature, seasonally receives flocks of migratory species and the very rare Black Stork, which is observed in Portugal, only in the most interior regions, inhospitable, isolated and with little human disturbance. A thousand-year-old olive tree estate surrounds the irrigation dam, forming our Olive Garden, but we can also glimpse these trees that tell hundreds or thousands of years of history throughout the estate. They have been able to resist the passing of time, to surprise us today with their uniqueness and magnificence.
