Production
Grapes are sourced from Vinha da Dôna in Bairrada, with clay-limestone soils and a westerly exposure, suited to the cultivation of the Baga grape. The grapes undergo a cold and long pre-fermentation maceration to extract colour, aroma and flavour. Then following vinifictaion the wine spends 14 months ageing in new 300 litre French and Russian oak barrels.
Tasting notes
Rich red fruit aromas, with star anise, clove and a touch of spicy oak, lead on to a complex palate. Ripe bramble fruit and plum flavours are backed by well-structured tannins and a touch of dark chocolate - all lifted by balancing acidity.
Food match
A great match for the local speciality - suckling pig; but works well with many Chinese dishes too such as pork belly, ribs and duck.
