Terroir
Located at Cima-Corgo, the vineyards are spread over a dazzling geometric setting of terraces built by hand with the typical schist of the region. Some terraces reach eight metres in height and this, combined with extreme conditions and the dramatic slope come together to provide a unique terroir. The entire vineyard reserved for Port wine has a letter A benefit with (the best rating) and was planted with the traditional Douro grape varieties
Grapes
Throghout the years, it has been provend that this variety is better suited to the region’s fronts with less sun exposure. The cooler climate allows the variety’s floral aromas to showcase. With lighter coloured wines, despite its dark skins, it has good levels of acidity and tannins.


Vinification
All this leads to a very special wine. It starts off with a bright cherry red colour with medium intensity. Has an exceptionally clean, precise and austere aroma where its mineral side stands out. Fresh red fruits, like cherry, smoked notes and a hint of spices compose this wine’s bouquet. The aroma develops in the glass, giving the wine complexity and making it extremely attractive. Elegant, fresh,
lively and awake, almost restless, palate. Excellent mouthfeel, with very polished tannins that gives it a long finish.
Ideal with red meat, game or cheese dishes.
