Casa Américo Branco de Uvas Tintas 2020 White Wine

5/ 5

<p></p><p>The vines that make Textura da Estrela Red Wine have around 25 to 60 years old, in granite soils and with a production that never exceeds 4,5 tons per hectare. Vila Nova de Tazem (Serra da Estrela sub region) is a terroir where the labels “Textura da Estrela” comes from. This is a low intervention red wine in which we do short pump-overs in the first days of fermentation and then only cap management. Results in a very typical Dão reflecting their genuine terroir and sense of place</p>

<p></p><p>The Conde de Anadia wines are born at the Palace of the Condes Anadia in Mangualde-Viseu.<br />Wine production on the estate dates back to the 18th century. Within the walls of the Palace we find the 10 hectares of vineyards, planted at 500 meters of altitude in granite soils, framed to the west by the majestic Serra da Estrela and flanked by the forest of the property. Belonging to the demarcated region of the Dão (sub-region Terras de Azurara) in the vineyards of the Palace we find the typical varieties of the Dão region: Touriga Nacional, Alfrocheiro, Jaen and Encruzado.</p>

<p></p><p>At the end of the 90's, with the development of the activity, João Pedro Araújo's family decided to acquire Quinta da Vegia, in order to start producing red wines.</p> <p>Located in the Dão Region, next to the town of Penalva do Castelo, it currently has 20 ha of vineyards. His mindset followed a careful choice of grape varieties - Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Amarela, Alfrocheiro and Tinto Cão, Encruzado and Bical - in order to create Quinta da Vegia wines.</p>

<p></p><p>Produced from old vineyards of Dão, the grape juice ferments in barrels and foudre without temperature control. This is a low intervention white wine, very elegant with crisp acidity despites its density and complexity. Rich and fresh, makes us salivate with its vibrant acidity. Still a young white.</p>

Currently the vineyard area extends over 12 hectares in 5 distinct plots and 2 ha of olive grove</p>

<p></p><p>Quinta dos Carvalhais Jaen Red has a deep rich red hue. It has a very fresh bouquet for a red wine, with an emphasis on violet floral notes, a touch of menthol and red fruits. Its palate is marked by a well-balanced acidity with soft and elegant tannins. Quinta dos Carvalhais Jaen Red 2009 has a medium but well-balanced body, ending in an explosion of fresh red fruits</p>

<p>On the tasting notes, the O Fugitivo Tinto Cão often presents a more open color. It typically features aromas of red fruits with subtle vegetal notes. On the palate, it's described as delicate with well-present tannins and a long, persistent finish. While detailed specific tasting notes for this wine can vary by vintage, the Tinto Cão grape generally contributes to wines with firm but rounded tannins, good acidity, and can develop complex aromas with age. For food pairing, wines made from Tinto Cão are often recommended with smoked meats, red meats, game, and aged cheeses, making it a versatile choice for a range of hearty dishes.</p>
