On the palate this wine is full and savoury. Its lingering aftertaste brings back memories of the natural aromas that make this wine so fresh and mineral.
This wine originates from grapes that have been carefully selected in a manual harvest. After they have been stalked and crushed, the pellicular maceration process continues for 8 hours at 10°C (50°F), maximizing the colour and aroma of the grapes
<p></p><p><span>Alves de Sousa Reserva Pessoal harvest of 2008 has an Accented ruby colour, intense and complex aromas, with spices, eucalyptus, sour cherries and a very thin toast. </span></p>
<p></p><p>Quinta Vale d'Aldeia – located in the Meda region in the heart of the Upper Douro – is a project born of one family’s effort and dedication, with the main aim of producing outstanding wines. </p>
<p></p><p>Quinta da Pacheca is one of the best known estates in the Douro region and also one of the first properties to bottle wine under its own label. It is first mentioned in a document dated April 1738 but it was only in 1903, when Dom José Freire de Serpa Pimentel decided to develop his interest in oenology, began to seriously dedicate himself to the risky business of winemaking. Today, a century and many successes later, a brand-new generation of the Serpa Pimentel family</p> <p></p>
<p></p><p>In the oldest wine region in the world, the Quinta da Penalva or Perdiz was born in the 1990s. This arose from the joining of small plots of land, mostly old vines, inherited from ancestors for whom the cultivation of vines was of little secret, as they had always done it. Later, and already with the current owner, more parcels were added, thus joining the old vines to new plantations, cultivated using the most recent planting techniques</p>
<p></p><p>Inóspito Rabigato White Wine.</p> <p>Fermentation is spontaneous with indigenous yeasts and ends in new and used French oak barrels (Bertrange forest). We want it to be a wine where the minerality, greasiness, acidity and freshness are symbols and expressions of this unique terroir and this incredible indigenous Douro grape variety.</p>
<p></p><p><span>Lua Cheia em Vinhas Velhas is a result of the passion to display the individuality and character of the Douro by the creators of this project.</span></p>
