Quinta dos Murças, located on the bank of the Douro River is distinguished by the presence of its 8 terroirs which are very marked by mountains, different altitudes and solar exposures, schistous soils and the characteristic climate of the Douro River valley.

This is where Murças VV47 red wine is produced. It is born from the oldest vertical vineyard in the region, planted in 1947 with several native grape varieties (Tinta Roriz, Tinta Amarela, Tinta Barroca, Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Sousão among others).

The harvest is done manually and the fermentation takes place in granite presses with the use of foot treading.

The ageing in barrels for 12 months has contributed to the complex and intense aroma, dominated by the more mature red fruits and the balsamic aromas characteristic of the older vines.

In the mouth it reveals great harmony and elegance, with very fine ripe tannins and a balanced acidity. It has a very long and persistent finish which, on the whole, allows for a great longevity.

Available for ordering!
