O Produtor, tasting note published in April 5th 2024
A white with a complex aroma. Orange peel, raw dried fruit and dried tea leaf are the most obvious. On the palate, it has marked acidity and minerality, with citrus fruits to the fore and a creamy texture due to partial malolactic fermentation.
Textura da Estrela Branco is a wine made with our grapes from three plots in Vila Nova de Tázem, in the Serra da Estrela sub-region.
These vineyards are planted on granite soils that are 25 and 60 years old, and are cultivated sustainably without the use of herbicides. These vineyards have been in the process of converting to organic production since 2020.
The wine is aged for 11 months ‘sur lie’ without stirring, followed by a further 4 months in stainless steel.
After destemming and pressing, the must is statically decanted for 48 hours. Fermentation and ageing take place in 2500-litre French oak barrels (50%) and barriques (50%).

Textura Wines
Textura Wines is a family project started in 2018 in Dão on the slopes of Serra da Estrela and involving organic viticulture, terroir wine production and wine tourism. In search of existing vineyards in a region of small producers, we have 22 ha of vineyards on 7 different plots in Vila Nova de Tazem and in Penalva do Castelo. With a low-intervention oenology, which reflects the soil and the location of each of our vineyards, the aim is to achieve wines with character, elegant and distinctive. Respect for the place and its biodiversity (soil, flora and fauna, people and community), the preservation of resources (natural and cultural) and local development are the basis of our fundamental principles.
